About The Study

A clinical trial that took place at Victoria Hospital in Bangalore between 7-25 June 2020, on 10 COVID-19 patients belong to age group 23-65 talks about their Ayurvedic cure for COVID-19. All the patients had COVID-19 symptoms such as cold, cough, shortness of breath and headache. Among the 10 patients, people with pre-existing conditions were also present, such as those with heart, lung or kidney disorders.

The study was carried out by renowned Ayurvedic practitioner Dr Giridhar Kaje (with 23 years of experience) and his team. They were supposed to conduct the clinical trial at the very beginning of the pandemic, but due to the prohibition by the state government, the trial was kept on hold.

Later, due to public pressure, the government agreed and Dr Giridhar Kaje was permitted to conduct his drug study after being given permission by the Bengaluru Medical College Ethics Committee.
