Diabetic ulcer is a complication of Diabetes mellitus that is often found on the legs and easily develop into an infection. For the prevention of this symtomps, antibiotic is required to accelerate the wound healing process.

The bacteria which most infected patients with diabetic ulcers in hospitals Abepura was Escherichia coli (38%). The result of antibiotic sensitivity test in hospitals Abepura ceftazidime therapy, showed that antibiotic sensitivity of Siprofloxacin therapy was only 16.7%. Imipenem choice of antibiotics had a sensitivity of 100% againts 6 types of bacteria that cause infections in patients with diabetic ulcers. Other choices of antibiotics which had a sensitivity of over 50% is Nitrofurantoin (83.3%), Gentamicin, Kanamycin and Polymyxin B and 66.7% respectively.Key words: Bacterial infections, diabetic ulcers, antibiotic sensitivity
