Abstract

The overuse/misuse of antimicrobial drugs caused emergence of antibiotics resistance. The medical science is facing this very urgent issue as World Health Organization (WHO) description. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop new antibiotics used against resistant bacterial isolates. This has directed researchers to discover new phytochemicals from medicinal plants to act against drug resistant microbes. Therefore, to get more perspective on using of phytochemicals as alternative medications to combat the issue of antibiotic resistance, to understand the mechanisms of actions in killing and inhibiting the microbes, this medical study is made.
