Results
Before the intervention, the total score of health literacy was 33.34 and 33.14 in the intervention and control groups, respectively. After the intervention, it increased to 40.36 and 34.20 in the intervention and control groups, respectively, which was statistically significant in the intervention group (p = 0.01). Moreover, the medication adherence score of the intervention group significantly increased after the intervention. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased in the intervention group. However, it should be noted that the decrease in systolic blood pressure by 148.98 was statistically significant, while the decrease observed in diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group was not statistically significant (p = 0.08).
