note = "Funding Information: A number of COVID-19 studies have been funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) as part of its Recovery and Learning call, totalling ?5.5m in funding, to help better manage current and future waves of the COVID-19 pandemic and investigate its long-term impacts on the health and care system beyond the acute phase. This review is a companion project to two Cochrane living systematic reviews on the prevention and treatment of post COVID-19 olfactory dysfunction (O'Byrne 2021;?Webster 2021), which were funded by NIHR132103 - The prevention and treatment of persisting olfactory dysfunction following COVID-19 infection; a suite of Cochrane living systematic reviews. The aim of this review is to capture evidence on the management of general post-viral olfactory dysfunction, which may also inform the treatment of COVID-19 patients.
