Overview

The book focuses on the rampant use of higher-dose antibiotics in human routine consumption and how it leads to bacterial resistance to multiple drugs. Book chapters focus on the result of their overuses and concomitant misuses, and how antibiotics have become synonymous with the unending hellish experience that is antimicrobial resistance by pathogenic microbes.

Challenges and Developments

It also talks about the challenges associated with the treatment of bacterial infections and challenges to mankind due to the development of high rates of antibiotic resistance. This book also provides information about developments of antibacterial drugs from natural sources.

Computational Approaches

In addition, it also covers different computational approaches used for antibacterial drug development from natural sources in recent times.

Detailed Insights

Finally, the book also elucidates a detailed outline of bacterial resistance status, current treatment methods, natural products as an opportunity for the development of potent druggable candidates, and methods of antibacterial drug development.

Intended Audience

This book serves as a great resource for students, researchers, and academicians in the field of pharmacology.
