Keywords:
compliance, iron tablets, pregnant women, social support, second trimesterAbstract
Compliance is defined as the behavior of a person who consciously follows certain established rules. The accuracy
of mothers in consuming iron tablets to increase blood count, at a dose of 1 tablet per day, is referred to as
compliance in consuming iron tablets. Non-compliance in consuming iron tablets has various impacts on pregnant
women and fetuses. Among the supporting factors, there are reinforcing factors from outside the individual, such
as social support, which influence compliance with iron tablet intake in pregnant women. If social support for iron
tablet intake is not implemented, it can have a negative impact. Individuals may face various obstacles, ranging
from lack of motivation, information, practical assistance, to managing side effects, all of which can reduce
compliance with treatment. Introduction: Pregnancy is a crucial period in a woman's life, during which nutritional
needs significantly increase to support fetal growth and development and maintain maternal health. One way to
achieve this is by taking iron (Fe) tablets. However, compliance with iron tablet intake among pregnant women
often poses a challenge. Various factors can influence this adherence, and one factor believed to play a significant
role is social support. This study is situated within the broader context of efforts to improve maternal and child
health in Indonesia, particularly in addressing anemia among pregnant women. The primary objective of this study
is to investigate the relationship between social support and adherence to iron tablet consumption among pregnant
women in the second trimester at Annisa Midwife Clinic in Yogyakarta. Methods: This study is a nonexperimental, quantitative study with an analytical correlational design, using a cross-sectional approach. The
data analysis method used is Kendall's tau. Data were collected using a social support questionnaire and an iron
tablet adherence questionnaire. The sampling technique used was simple random sampling. Results: The results
of the data analysis using Kendall's tau yielded a significance value of 0.868. Since the p-value >0.05, the
alternative hypothesis (Ha) was rejected, and the null hypothesis (Ho) was accepted, indicating no relationship
between social support and iron tablet adherence among pregnant women. Conclusion: This study shows that
social support does not influence iron tablet adherence among pregnant women.
