Background: Diabetes mellitus is the most common endocrine pathology. According to the World Health Organization, non-compliance patients, especially with long-term medication prescriptions for diabetes, have become a serious healthcare concern. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in the western region of Saudi Arabia from February to April 2022. The online questionnaire distributed through social media included questions on compliance among diabetic patients attending a primary health center. We entered the data automatically into an Excel spreadsheet and used the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences for the analysis. Results: We surveyed 526 diabetic patients from western Saudi Arabia. Participants aged more than 50 years old represented the majority of responses (36.1%). Most of the participants had type 2 DM (52.85%). Moreover, most diabetic patients complied with diabetic clinics. Conclusion: Our findings show an adequate level of diabetic patients' compliance. Future studies must address the related influencing factors for non-compliance patients to enhance patients' health outcomes.

Furthermore, 176 (50.7%) participants were university students, while 171 (49.3%) were school students. Conclusions: out of DES symptoms; headache, blurred vision, and shoulders pain shows a significant association correlated with participants' gender (P-values, 0.000, 0.002, and 0.000, respectively), while the only symptom of eye dryness shows significant association associated with participants' educational level (P-values, 0.001).

Background & Aims: Hypoglycemia is a serious medical crisis requiring immediate recognition and action to avoid morbidity and mortality. It happens when blood glucose level drops less than 70 mg/dl. Understanding the prevention practice of hypoglycemia, particularly in diabetic patients is a significant element to have a better hypoglycemia prognosis and treatment. Therefore, the current study aimed to assess the knowledge and prevention practice of hypoglycemia and its associated factors among DM patients in Makkah region, Saudi Arabia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a structured questionnaire in Makkah city population, Saudi Arabia. A total of 600 diabetic patients were collected by using an online version. The collected data and variables were measured by SPSS version 23. Results: A total of 600 diabetic patients, the predominant age group was above 45 years 285 (47.5%).
