Abstract: The present invention belongs to the technical field of medicine, and specifically relates to use of succinic acid in increasing sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics. The present invention found that the succinic acid can increase proton motive force of bacteria, thereby increasing the number of antibiotics entering the bacteria, and eventually killing the bacteria. Therefore, the succinic acid can increase the sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics, thereby overcoming the problem of bacterial drug resistance. Combining succinic acid with antibiotics can significantly improve the bactericidal effect of the antibiotics, which has better effects and higher safety and operability compared with only using antibiotics as antibacterial drugs at present.
