Guest guest Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 , I also do not get neulasta. But whenever I am in the chemo room I have heard the chemo nurses telling patients that they have to wait 24 hours after chemo to get the neulasta shot. Hope that helps. I get Aranesp which is for red blood cells and that apparently is ok to give at any time.
