10 One capsule of Fa Talai Jone extract contains 10mg of andrographolide, a substance that has been shown to kill the coronavirus and some bacteria in test tubes.
Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha supports the use of green chiretta to treat Covid-19 patients as it helps reduce their inflammation, government spokesman Anucha Burapachaisri said on Wednesday.
Green chiretta, known as Fa Talai Jone in Thai, could decrease inflammation and strengthen the immune system, he said. It should be administered along with antiviral drug favipiravir to treat Covid-19 patients, especially those with inflammation, he added.

There has been a surge in demand for the traditional Thai herb fah talai jone (Andrographis paniculata) since the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic with the herb selling out in several provinces.
This herb has been in the spotlight after a recent study by the Department of Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicine showed that it can cure Covid-19 patients who have mild symptoms and are asymptomatic.
Also known as green chireta, the traditional cold medicine has long been used to cure the flu, sore throat and inflammation in Thailand and Asian countries. Currently, the department has conducted more research by prescribing the medicine to Covid-19 positive people at Thammasat University Field Hospital. The results have yet to be concluded.
