Targeted Drug Delivery to Combat Antibacterial Drug Resistance

Abstract

In targeted drug delivery, antibiotics are precisely delivered to infection areas using nanoparticles and carrier systems, increasing effectiveness, lowering side effects, and causing the least amount of damage to the microbiota. By increasing local antibiotic concentrations, releasing antibiotics selectively depending on bacterial indicators, and using synergistic combination treatments, this approach combats antibacterial resistance. Diagnostics, real-time monitoring, and responsive medication delivery are all combined on multifunctional platforms made possible by nanotechnology. Though problems like biocompatibility and regulatory barriers still exist, recent research has shown promise both in vitro and in vivo. Targeted drug delivery, subject to additional study and invention, offers a method to increase antibiotic effectiveness while tackling resistance. It promises to improve the management of infectious diseases. Targeted distribution can address a variety of problems related to antibacterial resistance.
