A review of evidence published in The BMJ found that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and physical and mental rehabilitation programs can improve symptoms of long COVID, but the effects are modest. Intermittent aerobic exercise also improves physical function more than continuous exercise. However, there is no compelling evidence to support the effectiveness of other interventions like certain drugs, dietary supplements, or devices. Up to 15% of COVID-19 patients may experience long-term health effects, so researchers recommend offering CBT or rehabilitation programs to improve symptoms, with updates to be made as new evidence becomes available.
