Abstract
The current situation is alarming as there is not any specific effective treatment for COVID-19. Ayurveda, the traditional Indian medicine visualizes that Covid-19 is not described in ayurvedic classical literatures but after examining the doshas (humour) and other indigenous factors involved in their manifestation of Covid-19 it may be considered as an Aupasargika Roga (contagious disease) which is pandemic in nature. Ayurveda renders to serve as preventive as well as curative effect in treatment of Covid-19. The Ayurveda doctrine relies that if vyadhikshamatva (immunity) of a person is strong then even after exposure to viruses, one will not be affected. During a pandemic Ayurveda emphasizes on increasing the immunity of people by promoting the intake of traditional herbs or decoctions. Hence this study was undertaken to study the role of potent herbal drugs in prevention of Covid-19.
