The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has majorly impacted public health and economies worldwide. Although several effective vaccines drugs are now used to prevent treat COVID-19, natural products, especially flavonoids, showed great therapeutic potential early in the thus attracted particular attention. Quercetin, baicalein, baicalin, EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), luteolin among most studied flavonoids this field. Flavonoids can directly or indirectly exert antiviral activities, such as inhibition of virus invasion replication viral proteases. In addition, modulate levels interferon proinflammatory factors. We have reviewed previously reported relevant literature researching pharmacological anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity where structures, classifications, synthetic pathways, effects summarized. There is no doubt that treatment COVID-19. However, current research still theoretical stage. More studies recommended evaluate efficacy safety against SARS-CoV-2.
