Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by metabolic disorders, marked by elevated blood glucose levels exceeding the normal range. This study aimed to determine the level of adherence of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients to antidiabetic medication at Harapan Community Health Center (Puskesmas Harapan), Jayapura Regency. The research employed a descriptive design using the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) questionnaire as the data collection instrument, involving 50 outpatient type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Puskesmas Harapan. Sampling was conducted using purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using frequency distribution. The results showed that the majority of respondents fell into the moderate adherence category, with 24 respondents (48%), high adherence in 16 respondents (32%), and low adherence in 10 respondents (20%). Medication adherence among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Harapan Community Health Center, Jayapura Regency, was generally moderate, with most patients being elderly females.

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease with increasing prevalence and requires long-term adherence to therapy to prevent complications. Treatment adherence in diabetes patients remains a challenge, influenced in part by the patient's level of knowledge about the disease and its treatment. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the level of knowledge and adherence to medication therapy in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Harapan Community Health Center, Jayapura Regency. This study used a non-experimental quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The study sample consisted of 50 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients selected using a total sampling technique. The research instruments used were the Diabetes Knowledge Questionnaire-24 (DKQ-24) to measure the level of knowledge and the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-8 (MMAS-8) to measure medication adherence. Data analysis was performed univariately and bivariately using the chi-square test with a significance level of 0.05 . The results showed that most respondents had a moderate level of knowledge (54%) and a moderate level of medication adherence (48%). Bivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between the level of knowledge and adherence to medication therapy in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (p = 0.000). Respondents with a high level of knowledge tended to have better medication adherence.
