The Refluxed and Macerated extracts of these plants have shown relatively similar results in terms of diameters of inhibition and MICs. The extracts of &lt;em&gt;B. vulgaris, C. monspeliensis and P. granatum&lt;/em&gt; demonstrated relatively high activity as compared to the other plant extracts mainly against &lt;em&gt;S. aureus, E. faecalis and E. cloacae&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Findings of this study indicate that hydromethanolic extracts of these plants have antibacterial activity against the different tested bacterial strains. This activity supports their use in treatment of infections caused by such resistant bacteria.&lt;/p&gt;
