Patients were in the moderate knowledge (61%), moderate to high adherence (47.5%) and the average of patient's utility score was 0.793 with the biggest problem was on the pain/discomfort dimension. There is relationship between gender, education, income and duration of diagnosed type 2 DM with knowledge level (p<0.05). The relationship between gender, complications and number of drugs with quality of life was found (p <0.05).
