The COVID‑19 pandemic has gripped the world in fear with more than 109 million cases and more than 2.4 million deaths as of 16th February 2021. After US, India has the second highest number of cases in the world. A pandemic of this scale has clearly become an unmet medical need warranting research on effective pharmaco-therapeutic agents. Given the time constraints, existing drugs have been repurposed to fill in the gap. Ivermectin is an FDA-approved broad spectrum antiparasitic agent. It is enlisted in the core list of WHO Model List of Essential Medicine 2019. Ivermectin is economical, easily available and safe without any major side effects. Recent research has shown that Ivermectin possesses strong anti-viral properties. It can also be safely combined with other repurposed drugs for Covid-19. Here, we review mechanism of action and current scientific evidence of Ivermectin in treatment and prophylaxis of Covid-19. A number of ongoing clinical trials are evaluating the drug further in the treatment and prophylaxis of Covid-19. Based on the current clinical evidence in treatment and prophylaxis, Indian Experts’ consensus and recommendations by multiple Indian state governments, Ivermectin may effectively and safely add to the current armamentarium of Indian clinicians involved in the care and management of Covid-19 patients.Keywords

Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the commonly observed disease of the oral cavity and the prevalence ranges from 5 to 60%. Despite its high prevalence, the exact pathophysiology of the disease remains unknown. Multiple etiologic factors, followed by three stages of the disease, and types based on severity, with addition of pain and inflammation makes the management challenging for the clinician. A number of drugs are available for the treatment having their own advantages and limitations. In this narrative review, we review the available Indian evidence with Rebamipide in RAS. Indian clinical evidence clearly establishes the safety and efficacy of rebamipide in the management of RAS. Thus, considering the benefits of reduced duration of pain, accelerated healing and decreased recurrence, we conclude that the current Indian evidence supported by our clinical experience establishes the role of Rebamipide in RAS. Hence, we recommend Rebamipide may be considered as a first line treatment option in RAS.Keywords
