Ramdev said that two trials of the medicine were conducted. The first clinical controlled study was conducted on 280 patients and 100 percent of those recovered.

The medicine kit will be available for sale within a week across the country but only in Pantanjali’s mega-stores.

However, the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), the country’s apex body medical research refrained from mentioning the medicine and said that the AYUSH ministry should be contacted on the matter.

A senior official of federal AYUSH ministry, which specifically promotes the use of alternative medicines like Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, Siddha, and homeopathy, told Sputnik that they do not have any technical information about it and the ministry is not responsible for speaking about it.

However, during the launch, Ramdev underlined that the necessary approvals for conducting the trials of medicine on patients had been received. He added that the data from the trials will be released in the next few days as the evidence for the claims. 

The government of India restricts companies from advertising a cure without government approval.
