Abstract

The prevalence of smoking among Tikrit medical students is a concerning issue, reflecting wide trends in Iraq and globally. Despite being well-informed about the health risks linked with smoking, some medical students still join in this habit. Factors contributing to this acceptance include peer influence, stress from attentive academic demands, cultural norms, and the addictive feature of nicotine. Efforts to stop smoking should involve targeted educational campaigns, programs for smoking cessation, and institutional policies encourage a smoke-free campus environment for the well-being of coming healthcare professionals.
