<b>Background and Objective:</b> The emergence of antibiotic resistance is a primary global health concern. As a result, there is an urgent need for new strategies to combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria. One of these essential strategies is the combination of medicinal plants and antibiotics as an alternative to using antibiotics alone which was the objective of this article. <b>Materials and Methods:</b> Nine plant materials were collected from different Egypt localities and then extracted by water. Water extracts were filtered and added with Mueller-Hinton agar during preparation. Nine test bacteria and 13 standard antibiotics were used in the disc diffusion sensitivity method. <b>Results:</b> The activity of Amikacin was increased when combined with most different plant extracts against <i>Escherichia coli</i> while antagonistic against <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>. Aztreonam, Ceftriaxone, Gentamicin and Nalidixic acid antibiotics showed antagonistic or indifferent effects when combined with most different plant extracts against <i>E. coli</i>, <i>Klebsiella pneumonia</i> and <i>P. aeruginosa</i>. The synergistic effect was achieved in Aztreonam when combined with all plant extracts, while Nalidixic acid showed antagonistic when combined with most plant extracts against <i>Proteus mirabilis</i>. The antagonistic effect was achieved in Aztreonam, Ceftriaxone and Nalidixic acid when combined with <i>Achillea fragrantissima</i>, <i>Artemisia monosperma</i> and <i>Leptadenia pyrotechnica</i>, also Aztreonam with <i>Lycium shawii</i> extract against <i>Salmonella typhimurium</i>. The <i>A. fragrantissima</i> and <i>A. monosperma</i> increase the activity of Novobiocin and Vancomycin against <i>Bacillus cereus</i> and Ampicillin and Cefazolin against <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> but Novobiocin activity increased with most plant extracts against <i>S. aureus</i>. <b>Conclusion:</b> The combinations of antibiotics with the extracts of medicinal plants displayed varying degrees of effects, synergistic, antagonistic and indifferent according to antibiotic type, plant extract and test organism.
