Coronavirus spread is an emergency reported globally, and a specific treatment strategy for this significant health issue is not yet identified. COVID-19 is a highly contagious disease and needs to be controlled promptly as millions of deaths have been reported. Due to the absence of proficient restorative alternatives and preliminary clinical restrictions, FDA-approved medications can be a decent alternative to deal with the coronavirus malady (COVID-19). The present study aims to meet the imperative necessity of effective COVID-19 drug treatment with a computational multi-target drug repurposing approach. This study focused on screening the FDA-approved drugs derived from the fungal source and its derivatives against the SARS-CoV-2 targets. All the selected drugs showed good binding affinity towards these targets, and out of them, bromocriptine was found to be the best candidate after the screening on the COVID-19 targets. Further, bromocriptine is analyzed by molecular simulation and MM-PBSA study. These studies suggested that bromocriptine can be the best candidate for TMPRSS2, Main protease, and RdRp protein.
