The first phase was a cross-sectional study using Medication Compliance Questionnaire (MCQ) to identify non-adherence patient.

This study was done at two public hospitals at West Malaysia. 399 patients participated in the first phase of the study and 46.6% of the patients were non-adherence. Factors of non-adherence were associated with Malay race (OR 1.66, 95% CI (1.09 2.51), being single (OR 1.79, 95% CI 1.05, 3.05) and has poor HbA1c ( OR 2.57, 95% CI 1.61 4.10). The reason of non-adherence were ocncern about medication safety and efficacy, the used of complementary and alternative medicine, poor healthcare providers-patient communication, lifestyle restraint, andemotional vulnerabilityin taking medication.
