Combination Therapy against Multidrug Resistance explores the
potential of combination therapy as an efficient strategy to combat
multi-drug resistance. Multidrug resistance (MDR) occurs when
microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites are
excessively exposed to antimicrobial drugs such as antibiotics,
antifungals, or antivirals, and in response the microorganism
undergoes mutations or develops different resistance mechanisms to
combat the drug for its survival. MDR is becoming an increasingly
serious problem in both developed and developing nations. Bacterial
resistance to antibiotics has developed faster than the production
of new antibiotics, making bacterial infections increasingly
difficult to treat, and the same is true for a variety of other
diseases. Combination therapy proves to be a promising strategy as
it offers potential benefits such as a broad spectrum of efficacy,
greater potency than the drugs used in monotherapy, improved safety
and tolerability, and reduction in the number of resistant
organisms. This book considers how combination therapy can be
applied in multiple situations, including cancer, HIV,
tuberculosis, fungal infections, and more. Combination Therapy
Against Multidrug Resistance gathers the most relevant information
on the prospects of combination therapy as a strategy to combat
multridrug resistance and helping to motivate the industrial sector
and government agencies to invest more in research and development
of this strategy as a weapon to tackle the multidrug resistance
problem. It will be useful to academics and researchers involved in
the development of new antimicrobial or antiinfective agents and
treatment strtategies to combat multidrug resistance. Clinicians
and medical nurses working in the field of infection prevention and
control (IPC) will also find the book relevant
