Abstract :

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health challenge that threats to human and animal health in every possible way. Nowadays, due to antimicrobial resistance many modern therapies are at danger and routine hospital procedures like surgery, chemotherapy and organ transplantation are at risk because these procedures rely heavily on the use of antibiotics. Main causes of antimicrobial resistance are misuse and overuse of antibiotics, self-medication, over-prescription, undiagnosed infections and finally low-quality medicines. Other factors that contribute to antimicrobial resistance include poor sanitation and hygiene practices, and various environmental factors. Many world organizations are trying to combat antimicrobial resistance as this is a major threat to human health, economy and food security. One-Health approach is being used to control antimicrobial resistance because according to this approach human, animals and environment are all interconnected. In this article, we will put light on the AMR, how it is develope and its global impact.
