ABSTRACT
One thousand (1;000) urine samples from apparently healthy subjects were cultured for Klebsiella pneumoniae and its antibiotic susceptibility profile to commonly used antimicrobial drugs was determined. The study was conducted in two randomly selected local government areas within Osogbo metropolis. The occurrence rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae was 38 (3.8) and isolate were highly resistant to Tetracycline (92.1); Amoxyllin (76.3) and Co-trimoxazole (71.9). Resistance to gentamicin was moderate (63.2) while Ofloxacin; nitrofurantoin; ciprofloxacin; nalidixic acid and pefloxacin were very effective with 92.1; 84.2; 78.9and 76.3respectively sensitive to it and Cephalexin (57.9) was moderately sensitive.
