Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis (DR-TB) poses a formidable challenge to global public health. This comprehensive review examines the current state of knowledge regarding DR-TB and explores emerging strategies for its prevention and treatment. We discuss the genetic basis of drug resistance, the role of diagnostic tools, novel therapeutic approaches, and the importance of public health interventions. By highlighting recent developments and ongoing research, this review aims to inform policymakers and healthcare professionals on effective strategies to combat the growing threat of DR-TB.
