It has produced an outbreak of acute infectious pneumonia in China and afterward all around the world. There is not a single anti-viral drug, vaccine or any kind of treatment available for this fatal disease. There are only a few options available for symptomatic relief. Thus, in China, 85% of SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals have been treated with traditional Chinese medicines (TCM). Thus, this article focused on the previous kinds of literature regarding COVID-19 and its treatment with TCM along with its applications. SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV showed similarity in genes, pathological processes, and epidemiology, so these can be treated with TCM. The proof regarding treatment of SARS-CoV with TCM explicitly shows the advantages of using TCM therapy for COVID-19. Present literature explains the mode of action and efficacy of TCM and elaborates on the natural compounds introduced to treat COVID-19.Keywords: mode of action, efficacy, TCM, antivirals, COVID-19, respiratory pneumoniaBuabeid MIjaz MShamim SHuang XMurtaza GDove Medical Pressarticlemode of actionefficacytcmantiviralscovid-19respiratory pneumoniaInfectious and parasitic diseasesRC109-216ENInfection and Drug Resistance, Vol Volume 14, Pp 5017-5026 (2021)
