The socio-economic aspects of diabetes mellitus were studied, on random basis, in a group of 147 patients attending the diabetic out-patients' clinic of the University College hospital, Ibadan. The majority belonged to the low socio-economic class. Ignorance about diabetes mellitus was rife among the patients and their relations. The needs for an intensive public health education as well as more financial assistance to diabetic patients by the government are stressed.
