This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date exploration of the latest developments in the field of drug resistance. Drug resistance, a phenomenon where the effectiveness of medications like antibiotics and anticancer drugs diminishes in treating diseases, poses significant risks to public health. Consequently, there is a growing emphasis on developing innovative drugs to combat this issue.

Over the years, technological advancements in drug design have showcased the potential for resistance. While a wealth of information exists regarding antibiotics resistance, there is a scarcity of literature specifically focused on drug resistance in infectious and non-infectious diseases, particularly regarding the mechanisms, biochemistry, kinetics, dynamics, and management of resistance. This underscores the urgent need for a comprehensive compilation of available information on this topic.

The book is organized into five chapters, with the first chapter serving as an introductory overview. The subsequent four chapters delve into infectious microbial diseases, while two additional chapters complement this theme by exploring drug resistance in ear, nose, and throat, as well as skin diseases. The book also covers recent advances in understanding drug resistance in lung, neurological, kidney, heart, and liver diseases. Additionally, the book discusses the biochemistry of drug resistance in cancer, HIV, ocular, reproductive, and diabetes diseases.

To conclude, this book offers a comprehensive and authoritative exploration of the latest developments in drug resistance. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, healthcare professionals, and policymakers alike, providing valuable insights into this critical area of medicine.
