Abstract

This study aims to discuss the nature / structure of bacteria and how they develop some forms of drug resistance, which are acquired over time or by threat factors. To this end, we present a synthesis of results acquired through a systematic literature review on the investigated theme, discussing how the misuse of antibiotics, as well as the empirical treatment, become the main factors that trigger bacterial resistance, also pointing out for the various forms of resistance developed by bacteria and prevention from pharmaceutical attention and rational use of antibiotics.
