The study is done to assess the antibiotic   profile of E. coli causing urinary tract infection.

This is an observational study, total of 100 urinary samples tested only for E. coli were analysed for antibiotics sensitivity & resistance Pattern. In this antibiotic era frequent & improper use of antibiotics has given rise to altered sensitivity & resistance pattern. This study has shown the spectrum of variation of various antibiotics. The study has shown E. coli is highly sensitive for Amikacin, Meropenem and resistant for Nalidixic acid, β–lactam group of drugs, most of Cephalosporins, Ciprofloxacin & Cotrimaxazole.
