Product Overview
About Zefylti
Zefylti is a medicine intended to stimulate the production of white blood cells.
What it is used for
Zefylti was developed to:
- reduce the duration of neutropenia (low levels of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell) and the occurrence of febrile neutropenia (neutropenia with fever) in patients receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy;
- reduce the duration of neutropenia in patients undergoing treatment to destroy the bone marrow cells before a bone marrow transplant;
- help release cells from the bone marrow in patients who are about to donate blood stem cells for transplant;
- increase levels of neutrophils and reduce the risk of infections in patients with neutropenia who have a history of severe, repeated infections;
- treat persistent neutropenia in patients with advanced human-immunodeficiency-virus (HIV) infection.

How it works
The active substance in Zefylti, filgrastim, is very similar to a human protein called granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). Filgrastim acts in the same way as naturally produced G-CSF by encouraging the bone marrow to produce more white blood cells, increasing white blood cell counts.
