Interferons: their role in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the current indications and side effects of Interferons in the treatment of human disease together with sufficient background information to understand the rationale for their use. DATA SOURCES: Literature searches on interferons extended back to the time of their discovery. Citations were limited to English and human aspects. Reference lists from recent reviews were also consulted. STUDY SELECTION: Reviews of fundamental mechanisms were selected together with studies of individual clinical trials and anecdotal experiences with human use of interferons. CONCLUSIONS: Interferons are accepted therapy for a number of conditions. Their range of therapeutic uses will undoubtedly increase as further knowledge is obtained.
