Fillif-Peg Prefilled Syringe contains pegfilgrastim (6 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Mimics natural growth factors: Pegfilgrastim acts like your body's own granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, a protein that naturally stimulates white blood cell production.

• Stimulates bone marrow: It triggers your bone marrow to increase the production of neutrophils, which are white blood cells essential for fighting infections.

• Accelerates cell maturation: The medicine speeds up the development process of immature white blood cells, helping them reach their fully functional state more quickly.

• Enhances cell release: Pegfilgrastim helps release mature neutrophils from your bone marrow into your bloodstream, where they can circulate and protect against infections.

• Extends neutrophil lifespan: It prolongs the survival time of existing neutrophils in your body, maintaining higher levels of these protective cells.

• Improves neutrophil function: The medicine enhances the ability of neutrophils to identify and destroy harmful bacteria and other pathogens.

• Store Fillif-Peg Prefilled Syringe in a refrigerator between 2°C to 8°C.

• Never freeze the syringe; if accidentally frozen once, thaw in the refrigerator before use.

• Keep in original container to protect from light.

• Store out of reach of children.

• Check expiry date before use and discard if expired.

• Allow to reach room temperature before administration.

• Maintain good hygiene practices (frequent handwashing, avoiding crowds) while using Fillif-Peg Prefilled Syringe, as your immune system may be compromised during chemotherapy, making you more susceptible to infections.

• Eat a balanced diet rich in proteins and vitamins to support your white blood cell production and overall recovery during cancer treatment.
