Summary

Of patients admitted to an internal medicine ward with internistic diagnosis/es together with COVID-19, substantial proportion has elevated liver enzymes. silymarin / silibinin (milk thistle extract) has been approved as an add-on therapy in various acute and chronic liver diseases; moreover, there is evidence to suggest that it's dual effect (anti-viral and immune-modulatory) might be of benefit in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. As there is no effective/approved pharmacotherapy for COVID-19, a pilot study with Silymarine in hospitalised patients has been undertaken
