The ability to control blood sugar levels in these patients requires collaboration between health care providers, especially doctors who prescribe drugs, and patients as someone whose health outcome will be affected.

Compliance in taking daily medication is the behavior to follow the suggestions or procedures from doctors about the use of drugs, which was preceded by the consultation process between patients and doctors as health service providers.
