With the advent of antibiotics, there was a temporary ceasefire in this war, but the scenario soon started becoming worse with the emergence of drug-resistant strains within years of the deployment of antibiotics in the market. With the surge in the misuse of antibiotics, there was a drastic increase in the number of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant bacterial strains, even to antibiotics like Methicillin and vancomycin, aggravating the healthcare scenario. The threat of MDR ESKAPE pathogens is particularly high in nosocomial infections, where biofilms formed by bacteria create a protective barrier that makes them highly resistant to antibiotics, complicating the treatment efforts. Scientists are looking at natural and sustainable solutions, as several studies have projected deaths contributed by drug-resistant bacteria to go beyond 50 million by 2050. Many plant-derived metabolites have shown excellent antibacterial and antibiofilm properties that can be tapped for combating superbugs. The present review explores the current status of various studies on antibacterial plant metabolites like alkaloids and flavonoids and their mechanisms in disrupting biofilms and killing bacteria by way of inhibiting key survival strategies of bacteria like motility, quorum-sensing, reactive oxygen species production, and adhesion. These mechanisms were found to be varied in Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and acid-fast bacteria like Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which will be discussed in detail. The successful tapping of the benefits of such plant-derived chemicals in combination with evolving techniques of nanotechnology and targeted drug delivery can go a long way in achieving the goal of One Health, which advocates the unity of multiple practices for the optimal health of people, animals, and the environment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/antibiotics14070692","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,11]],"date-time":"2025-07-11T13:44:19Z","timestamp":1752241459000},"page":"692","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Harnessing the Potential of Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Phytochemicals in the Combat Against Superbugs: A One Health Perspective"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5686-8330","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Suma","family":"Sarojini","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Life Sciences, CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Bangalore 560029, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Saranya","family":"Jayaram","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biotechnology, Mount Carmel College, Autonomous, Bangalore 560001, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sandhya","family":"Kalathilparambil Santhosh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biotechnology, Mount Carmel College, Autonomous, Bangalore 560001, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0701-9324","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pragyan","family":"Priyadarshini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Life Sciences, CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Bangalore 560029, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6047-3702","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Manikantan","family":"Pappuswamy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Life Sciences, CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Bangalore 560029, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6938-1495","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Balamuralikrishnan","family":"Balasubramanian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food Science and Biotechnology, College of Life Science, Sejong University, Seoul 05006, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"102","DOI":"10.1093\/emph\/eoaa020","article-title":"Why is Preventing Antibiotic Resistance So Hard?
