White Blood Cell Booster here to help cancer patients

A new recent research has indicated that Cancer patients who receive a drug that stimulates the growth of infection-fighting white blood cells may be significantly less likely to die from a chemotherapy-related complication characterized by fever and low white blood cell levels.

The researchers published their findings in the July 20, 2007 issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology. While white blood cell boosters were known to help patients receiving very intense doses of chemotherapy, this study showed that the drugs are also a benefit to cancer patients receiving more common chemotherapy doses, as concluded by the researchers.


White blood cell boosters can have side effects, including bone pain, which need to be reviewed and discussed with each patient, as concluded by researchers that participated in this research study.
