Some library search engines were used such as SCI/SCIE, PubMed, and Scopus. In this mini-review, the keywords searched include “licorice”, “traditional Chinese medicine + licorice”, “SARS-CoV-2”, “licorice + SARSCoV- 2” etc. in the last thirty years. The author discusses the background, usage, risk of licorice, the research progress on its antiviral activity as well as some Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formulations for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.
