Abstract—Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

and progressive. One of the factors that plays a role in the
success of COPD disease control is compliance in taking the
drug. This research aimed to know the effect of SMS and
brief counseling on compliance level in COPD outpatient at
Pulmonary special Hospital in Bantul Yogyakarta. The
research was conducted between the December 2014 and
January 2015. This research used experimental study with
pre and post controlled group design. There were 33
patients for each group. The intervention group received
SMS and brief counseling, while the control group received
standard care. The level of compliance data was collected
based on interviews using Morisky Medication Adherence
Scale (MMAS) questionnaire. The results showed that from
66 patients, 49 patients (72.2%) had a high level of compliance, 12 patients (18.2%) a moderate compliance and
5 patients (7.6%) a low compliance. MMAS analysis results
showed that there was significant difference p = 0.000 (<0.05)between before and after intervention. For the control group there was no significant difference p = 0.306 (> 0.05). SMS and brief counseling in patients with COPD effectively enhanced the patient's compliance.
