This book presents a complete overview of COVID-19 and provides a
series of in-depth analyses of the literature and a comprehensive
discussion and perspectives on promising anti-SARS-CoV-2 agents
based on the system of ethnopharmacology, which covers Chinese
medicine, traditional medicines of India and Africa, Turkish folk
medicine, essential oils, and some well-known medicinal plants. In
this book, the current status of therapeutic strategies against
COVID-19 was summarized and a perspective of potential options for
the future was proposed. Based on ethnopharmacology, some
well-established traditional herbal formulations and bioactive
compounds with anti-virus activity were repurposed for managing
COVID-19 and post-illness, including neurological disorders and
kidney illness. Using drug discovery tools, promising immune
enhancers were explored from phytochemicals against SARS-CoV-2.
Nutraceuticals from dietary plants, spices, and fruits with
anti-virus and antioxidant activities were recommended to prevent
infection or severe illness caused by emerging variants. With the
aid of systems pharmacology, researchers have gained insights into
possible molecular mechanisms of anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity and have
predicted a range of candidate compounds from medicinal plants to
combat COVID-19. This book explores the current knowledge of drug
discovery and ethnopharmacology for managing coronavirus diseases.
The content proved the anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity from natural
products and traditional herbal medicines. It contributes to the
management of global public health and fits the goal of
establishing “Good Health and Well-Being,” which is one of
“The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030".
