<![CDATA[Pulmonary tuberculosis is an infectious disease that can be transmitted through the air due to infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria. According to the WHO, TB is the second-highest cause of death in infectious diseases in the world. This study aims to determine patterns of anti-TB drug resistance in drugresistant TB patients in Dr. Soetomo Academic Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023. This was a descriptive retrospective using patient medical record data in Dr. Soetomo Academic Hospital for the period January 2022 - December 2023. This study included 261 drug resistant pulmonary TB patients, the majority of whom were new TB patients (61.3%). Anti-TB drug resistancewas most prevalent in RR-TB (43.7%), with the highest number of new cases (28.4%). Drug susceptibility test showed High-dose Isoniazid (INHHD) had a high resistance rate (56%). Isoniazid (H) had a high resistance rate (66%). Pyrazinamide (Z) showed high sensitivity (66%). Levofloxacin (Lfx) showed high sensitivity (89%). High-dose Moxifloxacin (MfxHD) high sensitivity level (94%). Moxifloxacin (Mfx) high sensitivity level (92%). Bedaquiline (Bdq) high sensitivity level (98%). Linezolid (Lzd) high sensitivity level (99%). Clofazimine (Cfz) high sensitivity level (97%). Amikacin (Amk) high sensitivity level (100%). Drug-resistant pulmonary TB patients recently show a high drug sensitivity pattern to the second-line anti-TB drugs. MTB has become resistant to Isoniazid. However, it is still sensitive to Pyrazinamide by 66% and Levofloxacin by 89%. Moxifloxacin, Bedaquilin, Linezolid, Clofazimine, and Amikacin have high sensitivity >90%.]]>
