Give details of COVID-19 ‘medicine’, stop advertising it: AYUSH to Patanjali Ayurved

NEW DELHI: The AYUSH Ministry on Tuesday asked yoga guru Ramdev’s Patanjali Ayurved to provide “at the earliest” the composition and other details of the medicine it claimed is for the treatment of COVID-19, and ordered the firm to stop advertising the product until the “issue” is examined.

Patanjali Ayurved has launched the ‘Coronil and Swasari’ medicine with the claim that it has discovered a cure for COVID-19.

However, the Ministry said the facts of the claim and details of the stated scientific study are not known to it.

Patanjali has also been asked for details of the sample size, sites and hospitals where the research study was conducted and the Institutional Ethics Committee clearance, the Ministry said. (AGENCIES)
