Abstract:
The World Health Organisation (WHO) classified the novel coronavirus, known as SARS-CoV-2, as a public health catastrophe of worldwide concern in late 2019 because of its severe economic damage and unexpected global medical crisis. This illness has spread to over 200 different nations and territories as of June 2020, with approximately 7.6 million confirmed instances and over 0.42 million verified deaths. The hunt for an effective treatment is accelerating, although a number of vaccine candidates have entered clinical investigations, and little information about their safety and effectiveness in humans has been made public. Traditionally, serious respiratory infections are treated with natural medicinal products. The optimum stability and ease of manufacturing scale-up make oral formulations ideal candidates for prophylactics. In the present review, we have summarized the etiology and the inhibitory effect of allopathic, Ayurvedic, homeopathic, and Chinese medicines against human coronavirus. We have demonstrated that repurposing several readily accessible drugs and herbal remedies as preventive measures can be an effective way to prevent or at least slow down virus transmission.
