Background: We conducted an analysis on the identification of all bacteria that are isolated in urine and blood samples, over a period of one year in Khammam region. Methods: Analysis was performed on the identification of bacteria. Results: A total of 570 samples were isolated from the samples of both males and females of different age groups. In females of age groups below 20 years, between 20-40 years and above 40 years, E.coli was equally resistant to Amoxicillin (15%), Erythromycin (15%), Amikacin (15%), Norfloxacin (15%), Cotrimaxazole (15%), Cefuroxime (15%), Ciprofloxacin (15%) and it is sensitive to Azithromycin (40%), Moxifloxacin (40%), Nitrofurantoin (25%), Netilmycin (15%). In males of age groups below 20 years, between 20-40 years and above 40 years, E.coli was resistant to Cephalexin (25%), Nitrofurantoin (20%), Cefuroxime (20%), Cefotaxime (15%), Amoxicillin (15%), Doxycycline (15%) and it is sensitive to Moxifloxacin (28%), Ceftriaxone (25%), Ciprofloxacin (25%), Amikacin (25%), Ofloxacin (15%). Conclusion: We found that many of the antibiotics became resistant against E.coli and only few of the antibiotics are sensitive against E.coli.
