Abstract
Background :-adherence to therapy is defined as the extent to which a person’s behavior in taking medication,
following a diet, and/or executing lifestyle changes, corresponds with agreed recommendations from a healthcare
provider. Patients presenting with type 2 diabetes mellitus are initially encouraged to maintain a healthy diet and
exercise regimen, followed by early medication that generally includes one or more oral hypoglycemic agents
and later may include an injectable treatment. To prevent the complications associated with type 2 diabetes,
therapy frequently also includes medications for control of blood pressure, dyslipidemia and other disorders,
since patients often have more than three or four chronic conditions.
