The increase in bacterial resistance constitutes a global risk for public health, which highlights the need to search for new bioactive agents present in plants. The in vitro effect of the ethanolic extract of Piper aduncum leaves on the growth of Streptococcus pyogenes ATCC 49399 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 10145 was evaluated. Qualitative phytochemical analyzes were performed to determine the bioactive components present in the extract. The diffusion method was applied in modified Kirby Bauer agar in a well to determine the effect of the extract on the growth of the strains under study. The ethanolic extract of Piper aduncum leaves at concentrations of 8, 16, 32, 50 and 100 mg/mL produced inhibition on the growth of S. pyogenes and in relation to P. aeruginosa, inhibition was only observed at concentrations of 50 and 100 mg/mL. The Anova statistical tests and Tukey's test showed significant differences (p < 0.05) in the growth inhibition zones at all concentrations of the extract on S. pyogenes, however, for P. aeruginosa significant differences were found at concentrations 50 and 100 mg/mL. It is concluded that the ethanolic extract of the leaves of P. aduncum at the concentrations evaluated has an effect on the growth of S. pyogenes ATCC 49399. Unlike P. aeruginosa ATCC 10145 it only showed an effect on the growth at concentrations 50 and 100 mg/mL. These results suggest the potential of the ethanolic extract of P. aduncum as an antibacterial agent
