Eleven children with bronchiolitis induced by respiratory syncytial virus received 10,000 to 70,000 U of recombinant interferon alpha-2a per kg of body weight per day. None developed signs of toxicity, and all but one developed an antiviral state following treatment. Interferon alpha-2a appears to be safe for infants with bronchiolitis. Its efficacy for the treatment of this condition remains to be determined.
