Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The COVID-19 pandemic is considered as the most crucial global health concern of the century. Given the complex interaction of physical and social factors on fast spreading infection, there have been increasing calls for comprehensive efforts using a community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach.

CBPR partnership composed of representatives from community-based organisations, health and academia actively developed the present study. Specific aims were (1) to assess the efficacy and safety of Ayurvedic combination, Giloy (Tinospora Cordifolia) and Pippali (Piper longum) in the management of mild-to-moderate cases of COVID-19 and (2) to determine the effect in relieving COVID-19 symptoms and preventing the onset of severe infection.
