Abstract Burili ulcer and tuberculosis are diseases caused by mycobacteria and are a real public health problem in Côte d'Ivoire. We evaluated the activity of the aqueous extract of Phyllanthus amarus on the in vitro growth of two strains of M.tuberculosis (H37Rv and RF94) and one strain of M. ulcerans recorded under the name (02003). The results showed that all strains tested were susceptible to the aqueous extract of Phyllanthus amarus with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 16 mg / ml for RF94 and 64 mg / ml for H37Rv and 02003 strains. This study shows that it is necessary to widen our research on more extracts tested in vitro and in vivo to enhance the bactericidal activity of Phyllanthus amarus.
