The tall claims of Swami Ramdev’s Patanjali of launching a medicine which will 100 per cent treat corona has run into rough weather. The Ayush Ministry and ICMR are not impressed with the claims with the former asking the company to stop the medicine’s advertising.

According to a June 2 Ayush Ministry directive, false claims and publicising approval of research study or product manufacturing about COVID-19 control, writing COVID-19 related claims and name of the ministry of AYUSH on the labels and containers tantamount to contravention of legal provisions.

Patanjali Ayurved Ltd has been asked to provide at the earliest details of the name and composition of the medicines being claimed for coronavirus infection treatment, information on sites or hospitals where the research study was conducted and the protocols followed, the ministry said.

It has also been asked to provide information on sample size, details of the Institutional Ethics Committee clearance, CTRI registration, results data of the study and has been asked to “stop advertising/publicising such claims till the issue is duly examined”.

The licensing authority of Uttarakhand government has been requested to provide copies of licence and product approval details of the Ayurvedic medicines being claimed for the treatment of coronavirus infection, the ministry said in its statement.

It said such advertisements of drugs including Ayurvedic medicines are “regulated under the provisions of Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954 and Rules thereunder and the directives issued by the central government in the wake of COVID outbreak”.

The ministry on April 21 had issued a notification stating the requirements and the manner in which research studies on COVID-19 with AYUSH interventions/medicines should be undertaken. The notification said at present there is no approved treatment for COVID-19 infection.

Patanjali claimed its medicine has shown 100% favourable results during clinical trials on COVID-19 patients, except those on life support systems. Launching the medicines at a press conference in Haridwar, Ramdev claimed “100% recovery rate in seven days”.

The corona kit will be made available at Rs 545, said Patanjali Ayurved MD Acharya Balkrishna, adding it will have medicines for 30 days. Patanjali claims the kit can also be taken as prevention for coronavirus. This is not an immunity booster but a coronavirus cure, Ramdev said.
