TAKE RISKY STEP TO CONTROL USING TOBACCO INDIA :
• Background: Tobacco use in youths is a major public health challenge globally, and approaches to the
challenge have not been sufficiently addressed. The existing policies for tobacco control are not well
specified by age.
•
• Objective: Our study aims to systematically investigate existing tobacco control policies, potential impacts,
and national and international challenges to control tobacco use targeting the youth.
•
• Data sources: We used the statistics of the Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS), studies, and approaches
of tobacco control policies targeting youth. Considering country, continent, age, and significance, PubMed,
Health Inter-Network Access to Research Initiative (HINARI), Scopus, the Cochrane Library, Google, and
Google Scholar were searched. The related keywords were tobacco control, youth, smoking, smoking
reduction policies, prevalence of tobacco use in youth, classification of tobacco control policies, incentives
to prevent young people from using tobacco, WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FTCT),
etc. The search strategy was by timeline, specific and popular policies, reliability, significance, and
applicability.
Results: We found 122 studies related to this topic. There were 25 studies focusing
on situation, significance, and theoretical aspects of tobacco control policies
associated with youth; 41 studies on national population polices and challenges;
and 7 studies for global challenges to overcome the youth tobacco epidemic. All
national policies have been guided by WHO-MPOWER strategies. Increases in
tobacco tax, warning signs on packaging, restriction of tobacco product
advertisements, national law to discourage young people, and peer-based
approaches to quit tobacco are popular policies. Smuggling of tobacco products by
youth and ignorance of smokeless tobacco control approach are major challenges.
Limitation: Our study was flexible for the standard age of youth and we were not
able to include all countries in the world and most of the studies focused on
smoking control rather than all smokeless tobaccos.
Conclusion: The policies of tobacco control adopted by many countries are based
