About Grastim 300 mcg Injection 1 ml
Grastim 300 mcg Injection 1 ml belongs to the class of medicine called 'hematopoietic agent' used to treat neutropenia, a lack of certain white blood cells caused by cancer, bone marrow transplant, receiving chemotherapy, bacterial infections or other conditions.
