Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) has been declared global emergency with immediate safety, preventative and curative measures to control the spread of virus. Confirmed cases are treated with clinical management as they are diagnosed but so far, there is no effective treatment or vaccine yet for Covid-19.

With recommended guidelines of AYUSH Ministry, India, the use of Ayurveda for Covid-19 has increased; however, its efficacy and safety in Covid-19 confirmed patients remain unclear.
