    Abstract

    Title Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: Adherence to Therapy – A Cross-Sectional Observation Study. Introduction Diabetes has become the greatest global public health emergency of the century and is currently the ninth top cause of death worldwide. As a widespread condition that may be largely averted by making lifestyle improvements, type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been accurately termed a "global preventable pandemic" in recent years. Glycaemic control is crucial for treating diabetes mellitus, and it is impacted by the patient's adherence to their prescription regimen. Non-adherence is a widespread and serious issue in both industrialised and developing nations. Research has indicated that patients comply inadequately with therapy for chronic illnesses. This paper aims to examine the prevalence of adherence and the factors that contribute to non-adherence.
