Hi. There is no proven medication for lost smell due to covid. However, Smell retraining therapy has shown benefits in many patients. This involves repeated sniffing of strong smells like a perfume. Plz consult an ENT doctor online/In-person for a quick evaluation to rule out any other reasons for the lost smell and taste and for further details regarding the therapy. Warm regards, Dr Aanchal, Therapeia centre, Bangalore
