Etiological patterns of uropathogens is different in different regions due to continuous evolution, of bacteria, antibiotics sensitivity patterns, misuse and overuse of antibiotics. Therefore, it is important to know the antibiotic susceptibility patterns for prescription of suitable antibiotic. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of uropathogens and their antimicrobial sensitivity pattern from Kohat region of Pakistan. In this study 100 samples were collected from both males and females of all ages in which 70 samples contained microbes. In 30 samples no microbial growth was recorded. The Percentage of positive culture from both male and female were 57% and 43% respectively Both Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria were found in UTI but E.coli (34.21%) was predominant followed by K. pneumoniae (10.52%), P. aeruginosa (9.21%), K. oxytoca (6.57%), C. albicans (5.26%), E. faecium (5.26%), E. faecalis (3.94%), S. aureus (3.94%), E. cloacea (2.63%), C. freundii (2.63%), P. mirabalis (2.63%) and A. baumannii (1.31%). Many of the isolates showed resistance to commonly used antibiotics. The sensitivity percentage of different commonly used antibiotics against both Gram (+) and Gram(-) bacteria were Ampicillin 13%, Ceftriaxone 25%, Amikacin 77%, Gentamicin 41%, Augmentin 44.77%, Fosfomycin 64%, Cotrimoxazole 36%, Nitrofurantoin 68%, Ciprofloxacin 37%, Imipenem 78%, Meropenem 67%, Cefepime 25% and Tetracycline 40%. The most effective antibiotics against both Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria were Fosfomycin, Imipenem, Meropenem Amikacin and Nitrofurantoin. In light of the findings of this study, it is strongly recommended to discover new antimicrobial compounds and evaluate the resistant pattern at genomic and proteomics level to discover the genes which are responsible for antibiotics resistant pattern.
