The current global pandemic of COVID-19 has spread over 212 countries with marked morbidity and substantial mortality. This has resulted in colossal burden on the worldwide healthcare system. Globally the management of this new disease is primarily supportive and resuscitative. Vaccine and anti-COVID-19 drugs are still under development. Oriental medicine of India and China and the medicinal plants offer a potential for a fast track development of phytopharmaceuticals. In the present overview we have shortlisted the following Indian medicinal plants, based on their traditional usage and scientific rationale: Phyllanthus amarus Schum and Thonn., Berberis aristata DC., Swertia chirata and Androgaphis paniculata (Burm. f.). These medicinal plants and the phytoactives can be rapidly evaluated for anti-COVID-19 activity through reverse pharmacology.Keywords
