Abstract: Discovered in the year 1928, the first natural antibiotic “Penicillin” by Alexander Flemming. He was then later awarded the Nobel prize in physiology or medicine in 1945, alongside Ernst Boris Chain and Sir Howard Walter Florey. Since then, antibiotics have turned into one of the key agents in dealing with bacterial infections. Because of their effectiveness, antibiotics became so widely used among doctors. Not understanding how antimicrobials work, over-prescription is now the leading cause of antibiotic resistance.
Antibiotic resistance has become increasingly common over the few present years. It is important to be able to identify the danger, and causes and understand means of prevention in order to combat the spread. This study describes the hazard of antimicrobial resistance, It’s effects on humans lives in different aspects, causes, preventions and aims to address the general problems surrounding antibiotic resistance. By gathering information from various websites and researches published by trusted publishers around said topic, we concluded that antimicrobial resistance related issues are still getting overlooked and finding a new way to determine antibiotic profits must be implemented. Additionally, new rules surrounding the use for antibiotics might also be needed.
