Rebif, the brand name form of interferon beta-1a, is a prescription medication used to treat multiple sclerosis. Rebif belongs to a group of drugs called interferons. The exact way Rebif works is unknown but it is believed to affect the immune system to stop it from destroying the protective coating around nerve fibers. This medication comes in an injectable form and is given just under the skin, usually 3 times a week. Common side effects of Rebif include flu-like symptoms, redness or swelling at the site of the injection, and headaches.
