Fillif 300 MCG Prefilled Syringe 1 ML contains Filgrastim (0.3 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Neutrophil production stimulation: Filgrastim binds to specific receptors on the surface of blood-forming cells in your bone marrow, particularly neutrophil precursors, stimulating them to grow and develop into mature neutrophils.

• Cell proliferation enhancement: It increases the division and multiplication of neutrophil precursor cells in the bone marrow, increasing the count of these important infection-fighting white blood cells.

• Cell differentiation promotion: Filgrastim encourages immature neutrophil precursors to develop and mature into fully functional neutrophils that can effectively combat infections.

• Neutrophil activation: It helps activate mature neutrophils, enhancing their ability to identify and destroy harmful bacteria and other pathogens in your body.

• Keep Fillif 300 MCG Prefilled Syringe 1 ML refrigerated at 2-8°C in its original carton.

• Allow the prefilled syringe to reach room temperature for 30 minutes before use.

• Include foods rich in antioxidants, such as berries, leafy greens, and citrus fruits, to support your immune system while your neutrophil counts (white blood cells that fight infection) recover.
