Brief Summary  

Background- The Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) spreads is spreading a great speed and has become a global pandemic. Currently in absence of any approved therapy in India to treat this disease. At present more than 150 different drugs are being researched around the world. Most are existing drugs that are being trialled against the virus. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved limited emergency use for chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for COVID-19. The National Medical Products Administration of China has approved the use of Favipiravir, an anti-viral drug, as a treatment for coronavirus. However, the use of these investigational drugs has still not showed satisfactory outcomes.

In view of the above scenario there is a scope for use of traditional medicine as an addon complimentary therapy along with standard of care (SoC) to improve therapeutic outcomes in patients with mild to moderate corona virus disease.

Hypothesis: Administration of Ayurveda Rasayana formulation along with standard of care therapies will help improve therapeutic outcomes and prevent progression of the disease to severe stage as compared to patients in control groups receiving standard of care and along with placebo.
