What is Alpha Interferon?
Alpha Interferon is a protein made naturally by your body to boost your immune system and to regulate other cell functions. Most forms of Alpha Interferon only stay in the body for one day but can be modified to stay in the body for a longer period of time. (see Pegylated Alpha Interferon).The Interferon molecule does not kill viruses directly. Instead, it makes healthy cells less susceptible to infection.
