Abstract
Type II Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder that is currently a major health problem in Indonesia because it has a fairly high prevalence and increases every year. The purpose of this study was to know the effect of DM diet-adherence and medication intake on changes in blood glucose levels in patients with Type II DM at the Cempaka Putih District Health Center in Central Jakarta, Indonesia. This study was a quantitative research with cross-sectional design. This study involved 45 respondents who participated in the PPDM Program in 2018 at that place. Data were analyzed by statistical tests with categorical data. This study showed that 53.3% of respondents had uncontrolled blood glucose levels, of which 75% were not compliant in the DM diet, and 54.2% were not regular in their medication intake behavior. The results of the Chi-Square Test showed that DM diet-adherence and medication intake affected the blood glucose levels of DM patients with odd ratio was 4.8 and 7.1, respectively. To control blood glucose levels, it was recommended that DM patients maintain dietary compliance and medication intake by following a balanced DM diet recommendation from nutrition workers. With controlled blood glucose levels, various complications of the disease can be prevented, and the quality of life of DM patients can increase
