    The adherence to the treatment in the geriatric population world-wide is a controversial topic, it is influenced by different causes, such as associated factors to the patient, medication, environmental factors, physician/patient interaction and lack of family support, are the ones that directly affect the patients with chronic diseases, with continual medication like diabetes and arterial hypertension. The methods to determine the adherence to the treatment were applicable and simple; the Morisky Green Levine was used, four questions were applied to the sample population with yes/no answer; furthermore, it was complemented with the patient´s file, approved by the ethical committee with which the associated factors that influenced on the treatment fulfillment were determined. Within the results, it is established that by means of the Morisky Test and according to the given standards for it, it is possible to determine that the 69,9% of patients is not suitable for the treatment and that only the 30,01% is and according to the associated factors in a familiar stable circle and those who live alone, considering it a factor of risk to the importance for the adherence. In fact, the 21,5% of them live alone and a 78,5% live with their family or at least with a person. About knowing the name of the prescribed medicament, the 26,9% knows it and a great percentage 73,1% does not know anything about the name of the prescribed medicament. Talking about the awareness of the sickness, a high percentage as much as the 81,7% of patients has little or no knowledge of what the sickness is, as well as the complications that can be involved and only the 18,3% of them knows what their sickness is about, but in a rather superficial way, which means they don’t know about its implications.
