Abstract

adherence, to prevent complications. However, medication adherence among DM patients remains low in various regions. Objective: To describe the level of medication adherence among patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus in the working area of Manis Mata Health Center, Ketapang. Methods: This descriptive study used a total sampling technique involving 70 respondents diagnosed with Type II DM. Data were collected using the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) questionnaire and analyzed univariately to obtain the frequency distribution of respondent characteristics and adherence levels. Results: Most respondents were aged 56–66 years (45.7%), female (58.6%), had a junior high school education (40.0%), were unemployed (37.1%), and had suffered from DM for more than 5 years (70.0%). The level of medication adherence was very low, with 94.3% of respondents being non-adherent, 5.7% moderately adherent, and 0% fully adherent. Advanced age, low education, unemployment, and longer duration of illness were the main contributing factors to poor adherence. Conclusion: Medication adherence among patients with Type II DM in this study area was very low. Comprehensive interventions, continuous health education, family support, and optimization of non-communicable disease control programs at the primary care level are essential to improve patient adherence.
