Alarming Antimicrobial Resistance - The CC Treatment Fights AMR

What is Antimicrobial Resistance?

Reports and agencies are releasing the newest problem in the world's health as the number one issue facing this era, "Antimicrobial Resistance." This is the idea that some of the world's most common infections and diseases are slowly becoming immune to our current medical treatments. Eventually, we will only have drugs that can cure or treat these illnesses effectively.

"The spread of deadly superbugs that evade even the most powerful antibiotics is no longer a prediction, but is happening right now across the world," United Nations officials said.

There are already a few examples of this happening. One is the rise of superbugs, which have become antibiotic-resistant. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one such superbug. Other examples include resistance to antifungals, antivirals, and antiparasitic drugs.

Examples of AMRs:

• Bacteria: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE), Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia (CRKP)
• Fungi: Candida Auris
• Viruses: Hepatitis C, HIV
• Parasites: Plasmodium falciparum

The leading cause of antimicrobial resistance is the overuse and misuse of antibiotics. When people take antibiotics for viral infections (like the flu), it gives bacteria a chance to mutate and become resistant. Also, when people don't finish their antibiotic prescriptions, it allows some bacteria to survive and become resistant.

The world must urgently address the global problem of antimicrobial resistance. Estimates suggest that by 2050, drug-resistant infections will cause the deaths of 10 million people each year. We must find new ways to prevent and treat diseases and slow the spread of antimicrobial resistance.

WHO warns that infection with antibiotic-resistant bacteria compared to one with antibiotic-sensitive bacteria doubles a person's risk of dying. Like bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites grow to defy the drugs that once killed them, the threat to global public health grows. When more and more standard treatments no longer work, mainly due to overuse and misuse, infections become difficult or impossible to control. Pathogens will spread more widely, and the illnesses and hospital stays they induce will be more prolonged and more likely to kill people.

Various reports have attempted to estimate AMR's economic effects, presenting disturbing findings. For example, the yearly cost to the US health system alone has been estimated at $21 to 34 billion dollars, accompanied by more than 8 million additional days in the hospital.
It is a complex global public health challenge, and no single or straightforward strategy will suffice to fully contain the emergence and spread of infectious organisms that become resistant to the available antimicrobial drugs.
The development of antimicrobial resistance is a natural phenomenon in microorganisms. The selective pressure exerted by using and misusing antimicrobial agents in humans and animals accelerates it. The current lack of new antimicrobials on the horizon to replace those that become ineffective brings added urgency to the need to protect the efficacy of existing drugs.

How to prevent antibiotic resistance?

There are a few things that you can do to help prevent antimicrobial resistance:

- Only take antibiotics when prescribed by a healthcare professional

- Never share your antibiotics with others

- Finish your entire antibiotic prescription, even if you feel better

- Avoiding antimicrobial resistance starts with you!
