Background ; Stunting is one of the chronic nutritional problems in Indonesia that has not been resolved until now. Stunting does not only occur in children but also in adolescents. Stunted children will tend to grow into stunted adolescents or adults. Anemia is one of the factors that contributes to the formation of a stunted generation. Anemic women are at risk of giving birth to premature babies, low birth weight (LBW), and small-for-gestational-age (SGA). These three problems have a 3.2 times greater risk of causing children to grow up with stunting problems. In addition, anemia is also a risk for stunted individuals.  Objectives; One of the targets of this program is adolescent girls. The expected effect of this program is an improvement in hemoglobin concentration. In practice, there are several factors that can affect hemoglobin concentration, including knowledge about anemia and TTD, the level of compliance with TTD consumption, and the management and implementation of the TTD program. The purpose of this study was to analyze the management of the TTD supplementation program by UKS teachers. This study used a cross-sectional design. This study itself was conducted in March-June 2023 at SMAN 18 Makassar. The research subjects included 50 female adolescent students who received the TTD program. This study used primary data including TTD program management data. Result; the highest level of compliance in taking blood-boosting tablets was in the low compliance category, conversely at the good knowledge level, most respondents were found to have a moderate compliance category. The results of the Spearman test found a p value of 0.023. This means that there is a significant relationship between knowledge and the level of compliance in taking blood-boosting tablets. Conclusion; There is a relationship between the level of knowledge of anemia and compliance with iron supplementation tablets at SMAN 18 Makassar with a p value = 0.023 (<0.05) so that it can be an evaluation of the iron supplementation tablet implementation program carried out by the government.
