Abstract	This study aims to evaluate the antibacterial properties of Squilla maritima, a homoeopathic medicine, against Streptococcus pneumonia, a common pathogen in the human upper respiratory tract. The Agar Well-Diffusion test will be used to screen the bacteria at 30C and 200C potencies. Result: Squilla maritime 30C (0.8±0.1), 200C (0.6±0.1) cm. showed inhibitory activity against Streptococcus pneumonia by Agar well-diffusion assay. Squilla maritima 30 showed maximum Growth inhibitory zone (GIZ) against Streptococcus pneumonia. But Vehicle control (Dispensing alcohol or ethanol 90%) showed 10mm of Growth inhibitory zone which is more than squilla 30C. Conclusion: This experiment showed that the homoeopathic medicine Squilla maritima has antibacterial property against Streptococcus pneumonia which is less effective than dispensing alcohol.
