Abstract:Background Methods: Here, stage-wise principles of fever management mentioned in classical Ayurvedic texts based on the guidelines issued by the state government for AYUSH intervention have been applied in mild-to-moderate cases of COVID-19, who had tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 using RT-PCR test and with CT findings of ground glass opacities in lung fields.
Result: After Ayurvedic intervention, these patients responded well symptomatically after informed consent was taken, their RT-PCR test detected negative and remarkable reversal of ground glass opacities in CT scan of lungs were observed. This is evident from the negative RT-PCR tests and CT scans of three patients - two of them showing reversal of ground glass opacities and one showing reversal of consolidation, after exclusive Ayurvedic management.
Conclusion: Adopting “stand-alone Ayurvedic medication” in mild-to-moderate cases of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 commonly known as COVID-19) disease in the beginning stage itself controls the infections and simultaneously reverses the pathogenesis, thus preventing further complications.
