 Interferons are low molecular glycoprotein cytokines produced by host cells in response to viral infections. Interferon alpha 2B interacts with receptors on the surface of cells, where it fights with cancer, directly by interfering with the cancer cells ability to divide, and indirectly by modifying the body’s response to the cancer cells.<\/p>\n

Before receiving INTALFA 5MIU, tell your physician if you have liver, kidney or heart problems, are pregnant or breastfeeding. This medicine is not suitable for use in children and adolescents below 18 years of age. The common side effects are tiredness, nausea, diarrhoea and headache.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
