Neulasta (pegfilgrastim) Treatment for Low Neutrophil Count

Chemotherapy for breast cancer affects all the rapidly dividing cells in your body, including bone marrow cells, which produce white and red blood cells, and platelets. If your CBC shows that your neutrophil count is low, you may be neutropenic. Injections of Neulasta can boost production of your neutrophils, a special type of white blood cell that helps your body fight infections.
