Antimicrobial resistance is a worldwide public health concern. Rise in the number of antimicrobial resistant organisms, such as extended spectrum β-lactamase- (ESBL) and carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, continue to burden millions of people worldwide. E. coli and K. pneumoniae were isolated and collected for four months from a teaching hospital in the Philippines. All isolates were subjected to ESBL and carbapenemase testing using the double disk synergy test and modified Hodge test, respectively. Their pattern of resistance among different classes of antimicrobial agents was also investigated using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion test. Among the 32 clinical isolates tested, 28.1% were positive for ESBL production and 6.3% were positive for carbapenemase production. Species-specific classification showed that E. coli (44.4%) has the highest rate of ESBL production whereas both E. coli (5.6%) and K. pneumoniae (7.1%) showed almost similar rates of carbapenemase production. Antimicrobial resistance pattern of drug resistant isolates showed that all organisms were resistant to ampicillin, and majority showed resistance towards ciprofloxacin, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim. ESBL production is seen highest among E. coli isolates while similar rates of carbapenemase production was observed to both E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates. Overall, antimicrobial resistance continues to rise and poses a huge threat in public health worldwide. Efforts should be made in developing rapid tests for antimicrobial resistance and to search for effective treatment from infections caused by multidrug resistant organisms.
