the acquisition of secondary mutations that reduce the fitness cost of resistance, stabilizing resistance even after drug use stops.

In infectious diseases, compensatory evolution of resistance refers to the acquisition of secondary mutations that reduce the fitness cost of resistance, stabilizing resistance even after drug use stops. This meaning comes from Schrag (1997) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences.[1]
