Wskazania:
Ratiograstim is indicated for the reduction in the duration of neutropenia and the incidence of febrile neutropenia in patients treated with established cytotoxic chemotherapy for malignancy (with the exception of chronic myeloid leukaemia and myelodysplastic syndromes) and for the reduction in the duration of neutropenia in patients undergoing myeloablative therapy followed by bone-marrow transplantation considered to be at increased risk of prolonged severe neutropenia. The safety and efficacy of filgrastim are similar in adults and children receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy.Ratiograstim is indicated for the mobilisation of peripheral blood progenitor cells (PBPC).In patients, children or adults, with severe congenital, cyclic, or idiopathic neutropenia with an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) of ≤ 0.5 x 109/l, and a history of severe or recurrent infections, long term administration of Ratiograstim is indicated to increase neutrophil counts and to reduce the incidence and duration of infection-related events.Ratiograstim is indicated for the treatment of persistent neutropenia (ANC ≤ 1.0 x 109/l) in patients with advanced HIV infection, in order to reduce the risk of bacterial infections when other options to manage neutropenia are inappropriate.

WHAT RATIOGRASTIM
IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT RATIOGRASTIM IS
Ratiograstim is a white blood cell growth factor (granulocyte
colony-stimulating factor) and belong to
a group of medicines called cytokines. Growth factors are proteins
that are produced naturally in the
body but they can also be made using biotechnology for use as a
medicine. Ratiograstim works by
encouraging the bone marrow to produce more white blood cells.
WHAT RATIOGRASTIM IS USED FOR
A reduction in the number of white blood cells (neutropenia) can occur
for several reasons and makes
your body less able to fight infection. Ratiograstim stimulates the
bone marrow to produce new white
cells quickly.
Ratiograstim can be used
-
to increase the number of white blood cells after treatment with
chemotherapy to help prevent
infections.
-
to increase the number of white blood cells after a bone marrow
transplant to help prevent
infections.
