dc.description.abstractObjective:Today, people are increasingly interested in complementary and alternative medicine (TAT) practices. These are the most preferred herbal products by patients. Herbal products are also widely used in diyabetes patients. The use of herbal products in diyabetic patients can lead to morbidity and mortality. The present study aimed to investigate the use of herbal supplements in diyabetic patients as well as the methods of administration and the side effects of the products. Methods:The cross-descriptive study was carried out from May to June 2016 and enrolled 150 patients aged over 18 years who applied to Mustafa Kemal University Medical Hospital Endocrinology Outpatients. Results:Of the 150 participants, 60.7% (n:91) were male while 39.3% (n:59) were female and 22% (n:33) of them reported herbal supplement use. The most preferred supplements were, cinnamon 5.3% (n:8), lemon 4.7% (n:7), pomegranate syrup 3.3% (n:5), green tea 2.7% (n:4), 2.0% almond (n:3), 1.3% (n:2) yarrow, sage and olive leaves. None of them declared a consultation about these CAM with their doctor. Also none of them declared a side effect. Conclusion:Herbal supplements are used by a great majority of diyabetic patients, but none of them were using herbal supplements by physician advice. The use of herbal supplements without physician control may lead to undesirable outcomes for diyabetic patients.en_US
