**3. Conclusion**

The Global pandemic with COVID-19 is on. Drug therapy holds the key to the treatment and containment of the disease. Hence, large-scale multicentric trials are ongoing involving multiple drugs. Until now, no therapy is absolutely effective in the treatment of the patient as infection and death rates continue to mount all over the world. Corticosteroids have shown a significant effect on reducing the mortality in severe COVID-19 patients. It is hoped that the results of the ongoing trials will open further opportunities towards understanding the disease process and designing safe and effective treatments.
