Covid-19 is a disease that causes respiratory tract infections in humans. The Covid-19 pandemic has spread throughout the world. Meniran (Phyllanthus niruri) is a plant that has been empirically shown to be an antiviral. This study aimed to determine the potential of Phyllanthus niruri and its compounds as an antiviral for SARS-CoV-2 through a literature review. The data were analyzed descriptively using the NVIVO 12 Plus software. The parameters used were the hierarchy chart, cluster analysis, and world cloud. The results showed that two secondary metabolites of Phyllanthus niruri have the potential to provide antiviral protection against SARS-CoV-2, namely quercetin and rutin. Further research is needed to examine the validity of these findings through triangulation of the scientific reports and research in the laboratory. Keywords: antivirus, Phyllanthus niruri, SARS-CoV-2
