Abstract

A superbug is described as a bacterium that has seen to develop resistance to traditional treatment of antibiotics. The World health organization has produced the first-ever fulfilled report on the AMR danger, which consists the information from 114 nations and ranks it amongst the one of the severe global health hazards of the 21 century. Every year, about 1 million people die due to the non-treatable drug-resistant diseases caused by these superbugs. Bacterial resistance is on the rise, putting many of our current antibacterial treatments in danger. Discovery of brand-new antibiotics has lagged behind the growth of germs resistant to them. Numerous novel approaches to target different substances in bacterial cells have been developed and are being researched. The present review emphasizes on the various types of superbugs with its possible solution. Also, it illustrates that, we should not be startled by the fast emergence of resistant pathogens dubbed "superbugs" by the media but what has been astonishing is the rapidity with which these superbugs have evolved and spread resistance, frequently at little or no cost to their health. The article provides an overview of the most prevalent forms of superbugs and potential novel medicines that might be utilized in a clinical setting shortly to fight these superbugs.
