This study was conducted to determine the potential of ethanol extract of rambusa leaves in inhibiting the growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria. This test was carried out using the Kirby-Bauer method with disc paper at concentrations of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. The test results showed that the ethanolic extract of the leaves of Rambusa (Passiflora foetida, L) had potential as an antibacterial in the resistant to intermediate category. Each concentration formed an inhibition zone of 10 + 1.73 mm in sequence; 9.33 + 0.57 mm; 12.66 + 3.21 mm; and 19 + 2.64 mm.
