Detailed Information

Introduction

Apligraf 300mcg Injection contains filgrastim, a growth factor that helps your body produce more white blood cells. White blood cells are your immune system's frontline defense against infection. This medication is FDA-approved to prevent serious infections that can occur when chemotherapy lowers your white blood cell count—a condition called neutropenia. Apligraf works by stimulating your bone marrow to create more white blood cells faster, helping your body fight off bacteria and other harmful invaders during cancer treatment.

Apligraf 300mcg Injection belongs to a drug class called colony-stimulating factors. It's used not only in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy, but also in people undergoing bone marrow transplants, those with severe chronic neutropenia, and individuals preparing for leukapheresis (a blood cell collection procedure). The medication is also prescribed for patients with advanced HIV infection and those exposed to harmful radiation to improve survival chances and reduce infection risk.

Key points

  • Stimulates bone marrow to produce more white blood cells
  • Helps prevent fever and serious infections during chemotherapy
  • FDA-approved for multiple blood disorders and cancer-related conditions
  • Available as a prefilled syringe for easy administration

Therapeutic Uses

  • Prevent infections and fever caused by low white blood cell count in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy
  • Reduce the length and severity of neutropenia (low white blood cell count) in non-myeloid cancer patients
  • Increase white blood cells and reduce fever duration in acute myeloid leukemia patients
  • Support bone marrow recovery after bone marrow transplantation
  • Treat severe chronic neutropenia by maintaining adequate white blood cell levels
  • Prepare blood for leukapheresis procedures
  • Improve survival chances in patients exposed to dangerous radiation
  • Reduce infection risk in patients with advanced HIV infection

How it Works

Apligraf 300mcg Injection works by binding to specific receptors on blood-forming cells in your bone marrow. This binding triggers these cells to divide, multiply, and activate, leading to increased production of white blood cells called neutrophils. Since chemotherapy and certain diseases suppress white blood cell production, leaving your body vulnerable to infections, Apligraf helps restore your immune defenses by boosting cell production naturally.

How to Take

Apligraf 300mcg Injection comes as a prefilled syringe and is administered by a healthcare professional under the skin (subcutaneously) or directly into a vein (intravenously). Your doctor will determine the correct dose and injection frequency based on your specific condition. If your doctor approves home administration, you'll receive proper training from a healthcare professional before self-injecting.

Instructions

  • Store the prefilled syringe in the refrigerator at 2°C to 8°C until use
  • Do not shake or freeze the syringe
  • Allow the syringe to reach room temperature for 15-30 minutes before injection
  • Inspect the solution for any discoloration or particles before use
  • Clean the injection site with an alcohol wipe and let dry completely
  • Inject into fatty tissue under the skin or as directed by your healthcare provider
  • Rotate injection sites with each dose to prevent irritation

Timing

Apligraf 300mcg Injection should be administered at the scheduled time as prescribed by your doctor. Consistent timing helps maintain steady white blood cell production.

Missed dose

If you miss a scheduled dose, contact your doctor immediately for guidance on when to take your next dose. Do not double-dose to make up for a missed injection.

Overdose

If you accidentally inject more than prescribed, seek immediate medical attention. Overdose symptoms may include bone pain, fever, or difficulty breathing.

Side Effects

  • Bone, joint, and muscle pain
  • Pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site
  • Fever, headache, nausea, and dizziness
  • Skin rash, itching, hair loss, and nosebleeds
  • Swelling in the hands, feet, face, or abdomen; difficulty breathing; or changes in urine color (seek immediate medical attention)
