Antibiotic resistance is a global crisis that threatens the effectiveness of antibiotics, which have been crucial in modern medicine. The crisis is attributed to the misuse of antibiotics and the lack of new drugs due to regulatory and financial constraints. Comprehensive efforts are needed to study resistance mechanisms and develop alternative therapies such as probiotics, antibodies, and vaccines. Antibiotic resistance is driven by factors like overpopulation, migration, antibiotic use in agriculture and medicine, poor sanitation, and environmental contamination. The global resistome is a dynamic problem that affects human, animal, and environmental health. The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, or "superbugs," is a major concern. The global economic burden of antibiotic resistance is significant, with antibiotic-resistant infections causing high mortality and economic losses. The discovery of antibiotics revolutionized medicine but has been accompanied by the rise of resistant strains. The global economic impact of antibiotic resistance is a growing concern, with potential losses reaching trillions of dollars. Antibiotic resistance is a complex issue with multiple causes, including overuse, misuse, and the use of antibiotics as growth promoters in livestock. The transmission of antibiotic resistance is influenced by factors such as sanitation, infection control, and travel. Superbugs are resistant to multiple antibiotics and pose a significant threat to public health. The development of antibiotic resistance is a multifaceted issue that requires global cooperation and coordinated action. Alternative therapies and new antibiotics are needed to combat the crisis. The global community must take action to address antibiotic resistance through research, policy, and education. The use of nanotechnology and antimicrobial peptides are emerging alternatives to traditional antibiotics. Global action plans are essential to control the spread of antibiotic resistance and protect public health. The issue requires a multidisciplinary approach involving healthcare, agriculture, and the environment. The "One Health" approach is crucial in addressing antibiotic resistance. The global community must work together to develop new antibiotics, improve antibiotic stewardship, and promote the use of alternative therapies to combat antibiotic resistance.Antibiotic resistance is a global crisis that threatens the effectiveness of antibiotics, which have been crucial in modern medicine.
