Abstract

Background: Coronaviruses are the genetic series of RNA viruses that infect both organisms mammals and birds. Different varieties of illnesses shown in humans as well as in birds are the most common causes ranging from minor to fatal. Common colds which are included in mild and SARS, MERS, and COVID-19 are caused by fatal. After cell entry, the release of RNA into the cytoplasm occurs, which translates viral proteins followed by processed replication.

Objective: The survey was based on a comparison study between the purchase of OTC and prescribed drugs for COVID-19 symptoms, including the volume of pharmacies from different zones of Yamunanagar district, Haryana.

Methods: The analytical survey involves the different zones of Yamunanagar the pharmacist used in this report. The numerical data is gathered in a methodical investigation which leads to quantitative research. The data investigation was performed by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.

Results: The north zone area mostly suffered from the COVID-19 pandemic condition from January 2021 to June 2021 in Yamunanagar and found that most of the OTC drugs purchased by consumers were paracetamol (PCM) and Prescribed drugs (HQCS + Azithromycin) by the public regarding covid-19 symptoms.
