🌟 India’s Home‑grown Antibiotic Breakthrough: A New Hope Against Drug‑Resistant Infections

As a practising physician in India, I’m thrilled by the recent announcement of Nafithromycin — the first antibiotic discovered and developed entirely within India.

For many of us on the front lines, antimicrobial resistance is a growing nightmare: rising resistance means common infections that were once easily treatable are becoming stubborn, life‑threatening cases — especially in vulnerable patients such as those undergoing cancer therapy or with diabetes.

Nafithromycin is designed to tackle exactly that — drug‑resistant respiratory and community‑acquired infections.
