Dr. Rahul Kumar Gupta*, Dr. Pavan Kumar Sharma and Dr. Anand Pandey
ABSTRACT
As a result of the corona epidemic, researchers all across the world are striving to develop a specific therapy. However, no clear specific therapy has been discovered to yet, and we are now pursuing procedures with symptomatic care. Ayurveda is an old medicinal discipline with a highly detailed literature on illnesses, causation, clinical aspects, and therapy. The primary goal of the study is to evaluate various treatment options for COVID-19 pandemic patients. To offer proper direction in the prevention of COVID-19, we employed knowledge of the ancient classics and historical literature on human treatment guidelines mentioned in Ayurveda classics, for prevention and treatment of communicable illnesses. A complete assessment of literature, Samhitas (Ayurvedic Classics), and research publications published between January and June 2020 by PubMed, Google Scholar, WHO, and the Ministry of AYUSH was conducted. Experts' perspectives have also been cited. Individuals with reduced immunity are more likely to get COVID-19, thus the herbal Rasayana (Rejuvenating) medication, which has been shown to have immunomodulatory effect, is also included in the trial. Ayurvedic medicines that may aid in the prevention of COVID-19 progression have also been reviewed. Indian herbs are commonly used in the manufacture of Ayurvedic medications or formulations, as well as in the form of beverages, to treat a variety of respiratory problems such as cough, cold, and flu. Hence, these drugs are formulated by using active parts of the plants, which are used for preventing and treating the COVID-19. These formulations are immunity modulators and they prevent the spread of the virus, by intruding at a different stage of virus multiplication in the infected person.
