The COVID-19 vaccines offer protection against the severe acute respiratory syndrome Corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) by developing an immune response to the same. Further, there are mass vaccination programs being conducted across the globe. India administered COVID – 19 vaccines for more than 90 crores of people as on October 2021. However, there are still a bunch of people yet to receive vaccination. Adding to this, very few are found to be allergic to COVID – 19 vaccines. Hence there is a need for an alternative approach till the whole population of the world gets vaccinated. One such approach is prescribing Nilavembu kudineer and Kabha sura kudineer, a polyherbal Siddha medicine formulation of Traditional Indian system of Medicine. This case study highlights the positive effects and importance of the above mentioned polyherbal formulations in the management of mild to moderate COVID-19 patients. Hence, the same can be advised to the individuals who are yet to receive COVID-19 vaccine and persons who are allergic to COVID -19 vaccines.
