RCT 1,252 mild/moderate COVID-19 patients Vietnam, showing faster recovery and faster viral clearance with an oral spray containing zinc, propolis, xylitol, ginger, and DMSO. 5-10 times per day.
2 studies use direct respiratory tract administration1,2
Targeted administration to the respiratory tract provides treatment directly to the typical source of initial SARS-CoV-2 infection and replication, and allows for rapid onset of action, higher local drug concentration, and reduced systemic side effects.
This study is excluded in meta analysis: many combined treatments which may significantly contribute to the effect seen.
Study covers propolis and zinc.

Abstract. Background/Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AFree oral spray, in combination with Standard of Care, in treating mild to moderate COVID-19 patients. This was an open-label, single-blinded, and controlled randomized clinical trial. Patients and Methods: The study involved 1,252 patients, who were randomly assigned to either the control or study group, with 626 patients in each group. Patients in the control group were treated with Standard of Care recommended by the Ministry of Health of Vietnam, while patients in the study group received AFree oral spray in addition to Standard of Care for a period of 10 days. The clinical progression and outcomes of both groups were compared. Results: The results showed that the proportion of patients with clinical symptoms on the 5th, 7th and 10th Correspondence to: Ba X.

Additionally, the rate of Real-time PCR test positivity for COVID-19 was significantly lower in the study group compared to the control group on the 4th, 7th, and 10th days (82.75% vs. 98.72%, 9.27% vs. 92.97%, and 1.12% vs. 50.48%, respectively). Furthermore, no side effects or complications related to AFree oral spray were recorded in the study group. Conclusion: The use of AFree oral spray resulted in significant improvements in clinical symptoms, recovery time, and viral clearance in COVID-19 patients with mild to moderate symptoms. This therapy has been shown to be safe and can be used as an adjuvant treatment for COVID-19 as well as other respiratory viral infections. COVID-19 is a highly contagious disease that can cause a wide range of clinical symptoms, ranging from mild to severe. In the worst cases, it can lead to the development of respiratory distress syndrome, sepsis, septic shock, and..
