Objective of this work was to study combined effect of
Ayurvedic medicines and Antibiotics against drug resistant
bacteria. e take clinical isolates of 4 organisms resistant to some
antibiotics, generally used to treat disease caused by these
organisms.
In most cases organisms resistant to antibiotics become
sensitivity when combined with some ayurvedic medicines. In
certain cases organisms were sensitive ayurvedic medicines, but
sensitivity increases when combined with antibiotics.
It was interesting to know that, in some cases although
organisms were resistant to both antibiotics and ayurvedic
medicines but sensitive to their combination.
Thus- combination of 2 antimicrobial substrates can be an
effective approach to combat with problem of Antibiotic
resistance.
I would like to end with a quote by the Nobel Prize
laureate Joshua Lederberg:
å
*
e must remember that the microbes have been
on this planet much longer than we have and can
develop resistance to any antibiotics used to treat them.
e should use a combination of approaches as
discussed above to minimize the resistance problem.£
