Abstract

AbstractAlthough literature studies on earlier viruses such as the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), and other similar viruses, in terms of treatment of coronavirus suggested the repurposing of some antiviral drugs, some Covid‐19 specific treatments, general forms of treatments, the use of convalescent plasma, as well as nutritional interventions in the form of vitamins, it is imperative to interrogate the nutritional status, age, and comorbidities of each infected patient before receiving any form of treatment. In the absence of any conclusive treatment so far, the study encourages the use of all likely interventions that could help arrest the spread of the disease. In addition, the current study has a particular interest in the syntheses and applications of vitamins and their derivatives which have been touted to play a significant role in the fight against Covid‐19, namely, vitamins A–E. It must, however, be mentioned that literature is not comprehensive.
