Hypertension is an incurable disease, requiring patients to comply with treatment in order to reduce the risk of complications, including death. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the experience of individuals with hypertension in relation to compliance with treatment. The study adopted a qualitative descriptive design using semi-structured questions, and a total of 20 patients with hypertension participated. The result of this study found 5 themes, namely, not taking the medication regularly, adhering to a diet, using complementary medicine, stable blood pressure, and dizziness as the primary complaint. There were significant and exciting results from this study, namely, patients who do not take medication regularly and do not adhere to their diet.
