Coronavirus has emerged as a global threat worldwide. India has also been severely affected by the dreadful virus and is currently the second worse affected nation worldwide. As it is a novel virus, there is no specific treatment strategy as on date. A mild symptomatic case of COVID-19 admitted in a Level II COVID-19 management hospital was managed through Ayurvedic drug intervention. Vyaghryadi kashaya and Samshamani vati were given to the patient for ten days of her stay in the hospital. The symptoms were pacified and Agni improved after treatment. The patient was discharged after testing negative for COVID-19 infection. The results obtained were encouraging in the control of symptom progression in the patient. The promising results in the study showed that an approach involving Ayurveda in mild cases can be helpful in the management of COVID-19 patients. Ayurveda can be used to limit community spread and check disease progression.
