World Health Organization declared coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by SARS coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) as pandemic. Its outbreak started in China in Dec 2019 and rapidly spread all over the world. SARS-CoV-2 has infected more than 800,000 people and caused about 35,000 deaths so far, moreover, no approved drugs are available to treat COVID-19. Several investigations have been carried out to identify potent drugs for COVID-19 based on drug repurposing, potential novel compounds from ligand libraries, natural products, short peptides, and RNAseq analysis. This review is focused on three different aspects; (i) targets for drug design (ii) computational methods to identify lead compounds and (iii) drugs for COVID-19. It also covers the latest literature on various hit molecules proposed by computational methods and experimental techniques.
