Since BPI has been around a long time, in humans, I am also one of those that believe resistance will not be a problem. The kill rate seems related to the dosage. For Abdominal infection a 100% Cure or improvement was see with a dose of 4.0 mg//kg compared to 75% when the dose was 0.5.

Again on the macro concept of resistance I believe it would apply to almost any non host derived drug. And indeed it might also in some way, someday apply to host derived drugs also. So does that mean one discards investment in biotech stocks? I think RobertK and many others can give you much better answers.
