Abstract

Hypertension and diabetes are common risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. Adherence is a primary determinant of the effectiveness of treatment because poor adherence reduces optimum clinical benefit and paves the way for complications. In the province of Camiguin, the prevalence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension has increased, as reported in the 2022 Lifestyle-Related Diseases Registry. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and medication compliance of clients registered in the Lifestyle-Related Diseases Registry for hypertension and diabetes mellitus in 2022. A descriptive study using a set of reliability-tested questionnaires was utilized in gathering the relevant data from 372 participants. The statistical tools used are mean, standard deviation, Pearson Correlation Coefficients, and multiple regression. The results reveal that the majority of participants have a strong understanding of their disease conditions and the purpose of their medications. Also, the study finds that the respondents have a generally very positive attitude towards health and medication. Aside from that, there is evident high compliance with the preventive measures and medication adherence. Moreover, there are significant relationships between compliance, health condition, the purpose of medication, attitude towards health, and medication. The most critical factor affecting compliance is the Purpose of Medication.
