Control of Tobacco Products

Control of Tobacco Products involves laws and regulations to limit access, reduce health risks, and prevent youth initiation. This includes taxing tobacco to raise prices, banning sales to minors, restricting where tobacco can be sold or used, and requiring health warnings on packaging. These measures aim to decrease tobacco use, protect public health, and ensure products meet safety standards. Effective regulation helps reduce smoking-related diseases and encourages quitting by making tobacco less accessible, less appealing, and more informed choices for consumers.
