Abstract

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a digestive tract disease whose prevalence continues to increase globally, including in Indonesia. Recurrence in GERD patients is often associated with the level of compliance with drug therapy. This study aims to analyze the relationship between medication adherence and recurrence in GERD patients at Rumah Sakit Umum Daerah Tanjung in 2024. The method used was quantitative, with data taken from the medical records of patients undergoing regular treatment. The sample consisted of 84 patients, selected using the Slovin formula from a population of 538 patients. Data analysis was conducted descriptively and continued with Chi-Square, homogeneity, and ANOVA tests. The results showed a recurrence rate of 66% and medication adherence of only 34%. The Chi-Square test showed no significant association between gender and visit frequency. The homogeneity test indicated homogeneous variance across groups, while the ANOVA showed significant differences in visit frequency. In conclusion, medication adherence remains low, resulting in a high recurrence rate. Therefore, further education and intervention are needed to improve patient adherence to therapy.
