SARS-CoV-2 has caused a prolonged COVID-19 pandemic since the end of December 2019 and is still ongoing now. Bioactive compounds can be used as drugs to treat infectious diseases. This study aims to determine C. alata as a drug candidate for COVID-19 through its inhibitory activity to Mpro SARS-CoV-2 in silico. Cassia alata bioactive compounds have the potential to be used as a candidate for anti-SARS-CoV-2 supported by the result of drug-likeness, ADMET, pharmacokinetics, binding affinity, and antiviral activity prediction. Further research needs to be carried out to make C. alata a drug for COVID-19. © RJPT All right reserved.
