Epidemiological Profile of Tobacco Users at Tobacco Cessation Centre: An Indian Experience.
Conclusions. Most of the subjects started tobacco use at a young age between 11 to 20 years. Peer pressure was
the most common reason for initiation (56%). Most of the subjects (68.2%) had no co-morbidity. The present study
observed that tobacco users probably want to quit smoking not only because of the consequences of co-morbidities
but also because of the realisation of later harmful effects of continuing smoking.
