Natural products are substances that serve as sources of beneficial chemical molecules for the development of effective therapies. In this study, 187 natural compounds from Algerian herbal medicines were docked in the active site of SARS-CoV-2 main protease. The result indicates that Piperitol, Warfarin, cis-calamenen-10-ol and α-Cadinene are the structures with best affinity in the binding site of the studied enzyme and all of them respect the conditions mentioned in Lipinski’s rule and have acceptable ADMET proprieties; so, these compounds could have more potent antiviral treatment of COVID-19 than the studied compounds, and they have important pharmacokinetic properties and bioavailability.
