Anti - Infectious Diseases and their Treatment: Current Approaches and Challenges

Dr. K. Venkata Ramana, Dr. Vemula Premnath

Abstract: Infectious diseases remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, prompting the continuous development of innovative therapeutic strategies. The treatment of infectious diseases involves a broad range of approaches, including antimicrobial agents such as antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, and antiparasitics. This discussion explores the classification of infectious diseases, the mechanisms of action of various anti - infective agents, and the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which poses a significant challenge to global public health. In addition, it examines novel treatment strategies, including immunotherapies and the role of vaccines in infection prevention. By providing a detailed overview of anti - infective treatments, this discussion underscores the importance of addressing emerging threats and advancing therapeutic options to combat infectious diseases.
