Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of Andrographis Extract, Boesenbergia Extract compared to standard treatment in asymptomatic COVID patients.

Interventions

Andrographis extract, equivalent to andrographolide 20 mg per capsule, for a total of 180 mg of andrographolide per day, dosing into 3 capsules taking before meal for 3 times per day, for 5 days.

DRUGBoesenbergia

Boesenbergia extract, equivalent to pinostrobin 30 mg per capsule, for a total of 180 mg of pinostrobin per day, dosing into 2 capsules taking after meal for 3 times per day for 5 days.
