5-Fluorouracil Inhibits Bacterial Growth and Reduces Biofilm in Addition to Having Synergetic Effects with Gentamicin Against .

is a multidrug-resistant pathogen known for chronic infections, mainly due to biofilm formation. This study aimed to explore the potential repurposing of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), an anticancer drug, to treat infections. Firstly, we investigated the inhibitory effects of 5-FU on bacterial growth using the microdilution method.
