Abstract

Antiviral is such as an agent, defined as used to treat the targeted virus, or vaccine to produce an antibody against the virus. It gives a proactive therapeutic effect. On the other hand, there is a long traditional use of herbal medicine in the medical platform. The herbal medicine is ornamented with a wide therapeutic window and its side effect is less. The synthetic drug sometimes invites some adverse effects, which is more important that is it occurs more frequently. This gives the opportunity to the researchers to get the noble drug based on the herbal formulation. This review reveals the many herbal plants with their use against the specific virus with the experimental method, based on the knowledge of the Indian traditional system of medicine. The recent database shows the growing research with the herbal medicine, with their therapeutics, especially this time of the society, suffering from the covid -19 (Coronavirus disease), because the doctors have no other options except steroid. So traditional plants open a new chapter in the research of the new antiviral drug.

Highlights

  • Worldwide mortality and morbidity have a major responsibility in the viral disease

  • The WHO (World Health Organization), IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature), and WWF (World Wildlife Fund) decided that it is perfect in the collaboration of offering an international Consultation about the conservation of medicinal plants bringing together leading its branches in the fields like ethnos medicine, pharmacology, environmental sciences economics to exchange the views with the administrator, policymaker in health and conversation on this problem to determine priorities and make recommendation fraction

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Medicine, protecting from various diseases, is the lifesaving element in the world. India has the world's longest, richest, and most diverse cultural legacy involving the use of medicinal plants in the form of traditional medical systems. Like ELISA (Enzyme-linked immunoassay), are commonly employed to determine the presence of viral protein in drug cytotoxicity studies. Though these antiviral assays are unstandardized and time-consuming, alternative novel approaches for drug screening are becoming more popular such as the RT-PCR (Real-Time Reverse Transcription) method, Biosensor Method using Capacitance Sensor Arrays, and Computation Method [5]. The review article focuses on medicinal herbs and plants that are used to treat viral infections in particular, which are inexpensive and readily available.
