It was found that the most antibiotics prescribed were Amoxycillin (38%), Ampicillin (26%), and Gentamycin (17%).On the other hand, the most antibiotic resisted by bacteria found to be Penicillin (100% for all bacteria except Escherichlia Coli 96%). The culture and sensitivity reports obtained from Hadhramout medical laboratory and Al Mukalla medical laboratory showed that the isolated bacteria represented a high frequency of growth to Staphylococcus Aureus, Escherichlia Coli, Pseudomonas Aeraginosa and Klebsiella with percentage rate of 40.67%, 20.88%, 10.8%, and 10.2% respectively. | ||
