| Betaseron ® contains albumin, a derivative of human blood.
Based on effective donor screening and product manufacturing processes,
it carries an extremely remote risk for transmission of viral (prion)
diseases.
A theoretical risk for transmission of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease
(CJD) also is considered extremely remote. No cases of transmission
of viral (prion) diseases or CJD have been identified for albumin.
