The results of statistical modeling showed that female gender (AOR 18.5; 95% CI 9.35-21.97), presence of hypertension (AOR 2.11; 95% CI 1.98- 4.25), high BMI (AOR 1.101; 95% CI 1.045-1.159), high Serum Creatinine (AOR 1.72; 95% CI 1.22-2.13), high BUN level (AOR 1.22; 95% CI 1.145-1.301) and low e-GFR (AOR 0.571; 95% CI 0.271-0.872) are strong determents of anemia in type 2 diabetic patients. .Conclusion:
