Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) with methylene blue and 660 nm LED enhances antibiotic killing of bacteria, accelerating time‐kill kinetics and reducing the MDK99 compared to antibiotics alone. SEM confirms effective cellular damage, demonstrating that PDI potentiates amoxicillin and gentamicin against tolerant bacterial populations. ABSTRACT Bacterial
