The increasing prevalence of bacterial infections and the rise in antibiotic resistance have prompted search for alternative therapeutic strategies. One promising approach involves combining plant-based bioactive substances with nanoparticles, which demonstrated improved antimicrobial activity compared to their free forms, both vitro, vivo, clinical studies. This not only improves stability but also enables targeted delivery cells, reducing side effects minimising risk development, leading more effective treatments. narrative review explores benefits plant compounds (berberine, catechin, chelerythrine, cinnamaldehyde, ellagic acid, proanthocyanidin, sanguinarine) nanoparticles treatment (caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus spp., Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Escherichia coli, Serratia marcescens, Pseudomonas aeruginosa), highlighting potential this overcome limitations traditional therapies. Ultimately, strategy offers a fight against resistant strains, paving way development sustainable
