Traditional healers have used herbs and dietary plants for centuries to treat various conditions. This review discusses the prevention of COVID-19, multiple herbs used in the treatment of COVID-19, and their future perspectives. Various databases, such as PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Medline, and Google Scholar, were searched for articles related to herbal products' antiviral effects using different keywords: herbal, SARS-CoV-2, plant-derived drugs, COVID-19, coronavirus, etc. Herbal treatment has been used as a contemporary alternative medicine for COVID-19. By inhibiting the replication and entry of SARS-CoV-2 into host cells, herbs can inhibit the pathogenesis of COVID-19.
