The mean scores of the medication and diet benefit subscales of the patients who participated in our study(The benefit sub-dimension of the BMCS was 21.44±5.39, the benefit sub-dimension of the BDCS was 23.44±5.50)was found to be higher than the mean score of the sub-dimensions of the obstacle (The obstacle sub-dimension of the BMCS was 17.52±4.66, the obstacle sub-dimension of the BDCS was 12.9±3.59). Generally, the compliance of the patients who participated in our study to the medication treatment was found to be good and their adaptation to the dietary treatment was moderate. In the study, it was determined that patients who had hypertension in their families were compatible with medication and diet therapy, patients who exercised regular exercise were not compatible with medication, but were compatible with diet therapy and patients with stress in daily life were not compatible with medication and diet therapy (p<0.05).
