The viral infection related to SARS and COVID-19 has led to a challenge among healthcare providers to search for efficient antiviral medicines. World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the current epidemic as a global disaster for people safety. That is why the research on drugs is considered as the current emergency in several clinical laboratories. The vaccines for the disease are still being tested in clinical trials to check for their efficacy. It could take a while before a safe and effective vaccine is made available for use to the global population that could specifically act against these viruses. But other methods for their treatment and prevention, including the use of medicinal plants, is available. Thus, it is important to develop a treatment regimen using medicinal plants and their phyto-constituents as a potential alternate substitute till an effective vaccine is developed to suppress the transmission of the virus. Based on current research information available, this review summarises the medicinal plants with antiviral activity for the prevention of SARS and COVID-19. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
