Abstract: | The objective of this study was to provide research clues for the prevention and treatment of coronavirus disease-2019(COVID-19) and coronavirus(Co V) infection using Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM). A review on research and clinical trials that using TCM extracts and active ingredients against Co V was performed, and a table of TCM agents and their effects on Co V were summarized. Relevant analysis was performed and visual expression of the data included summarizing the types of TCM and treatment methods for COVID-19. TCM fighting against Co V is mainly used in the lung and heart channels, and its medicinal properties are mainly cold and mild, while its taste is mainly bitter and sweet. The majority of research focused on treatments that clear away heat and toxic materials and those that strengthen body resistance and tonify deficiencies. TCM has unique advantages to fight against Co V. The development of new anti-Co V therapy using TCM is of great significance for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 pneumonia and various viral infectious diseases. |
