Okay. Forgive me if I say things you already know. Please feel free to ask questions. 1) It is true that abx resistance is increased/caused by every use of antibiotics (or any other microbe killing technique. But the degree of resistance varies.

2) Important factors are the drug, the pathogen, the particular pathway of resistance, and the rate/degree of interactions. For instance, some drugs have effect based on the concentration of the drug, others have an effect based on length of time at a steady state.
