    Snippet: In the present study, we have described how by using molecular docking and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation studies the combination drug of ivermectin and doxycycline can be used as a potential inhibitor for SARS-CoV-2 virus. In lieu of unavailability of specific cure of COVID-19 till now various possibilities for individual and combination drugs have been explored by the medical practitioners/scientists for the remedial purpose of CoV-2 infections. $3CL^{pro}$ is the main protease of SARS-CoV-
    Document: In the present study, we have described how by using molecular docking and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation studies the combination drug of ivermectin and doxycycline can be used as a potential inhibitor for SARS-CoV-2 virus. In lieu of unavailability of specific cure of COVID-19 till now various possibilities for individual and combination drugs have been explored by the medical practitioners/scientists for the remedial purpose of CoV-2 infections. $3CL^{pro}$ is the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 virus which plays an essential role in mediating viral replication in the human body. $3CL^{pro}$ protein can serve as an attractive drug target. In this work, we have studied drug: $3CL^{pro}$ interactions by in silico molecular docking and MD simulation approaches. Common and easily available antiviral drugs ivermectin, doxycycline and their combination have been proved their valid candidature to be used as potential drug candidates against SARS-CoV-2 infections.
