more
Interferon beta-1a is a drug in the interferon family used to treat multiple sclerosis (MS). [ 1 ] It is produced by mammalian cells while Interferon beta-1b is produced in modified E. coli . Interferons have been shown to have about a 18-38% reduction in the rate of MS relapses, and to slow the progression of disability in MS patients [ 2 ] . None of the products on the market is a cure, but patients today who start early on Interferons may beneficially alter the natural course of the disease.
