Patients infected with resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain will be very difficult to cure by standard treatment. To evaluate
the drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A Cross sectional study was performed from January until July 2005. Samples were
obtained from sputum of the suspect tuberculosis. All samples were cultured in Lowenstein-Jensen Media and followed by sensitivity test
according to resistance ratio method. Of 236 samples, there were 30% positive cultures. The percentage of mono-resistance to Isoniazid
was 70%, to Rifampicin 64.3%, to Ethambutol 62.8% and Streptomycin 64.3%. The percentage of Multi Drug Resistant Tuberculosis
(MDR-TB) was 20–40% and the percentage of poly-resistant (Ethambutol and Streptomycin) was 47.1%. The percentage of suspect
tuberculosis with positive culture was 30%. There were also found high percentage of mono-resistant, poly-resistant and MDR-TB.
