Abstract
Potentially, such an approach would significantly increase the effectiveness of therapy for a number of infectious and other diseases, reduce the dosage of antibiotics, shorten the duration of treatment, and reduce the risk of developing resistance. Moreover, the use of a polymer carrier with covalently bound organic molecules of different structures avoids problems with different (suboptimal) solubility and bio-distribution, which would be almost inevitable when using the same compounds separately. It would be very difficult to find antibiotic/adjuvant pairs that simultaneously achieve optimal concentrations in the same target cells. In our case, terpenoids and alkylbenzenes used as adjuvants are practically insoluble as individual compounds and their unacceptable pharmacological properties would not allow them to be used as efflux pump inhibitors.
