In the Eastern Mediterranean Region, 17.9 % of people aged 15 years and over are tobacco users. Given the global and regional prevalence and burden of tobacco use, particularly as a risk factor for noncommunicable diseases, it is important that the role of pharmacists in tobacco use prevention and cessation is expanded and consolidated. FIP and the Eastern Mediterranean Regional Pharmaceutical Forum invite you to join this event to learn more about the burden of tobacco use in the Eastern Mediterranean region and the role that pharmacists can play in tobacco cessation. The event will include insights from the WHO Regional Office, country examples of pharmacist services and the presentation of FIP resources to advance tobacco cessation through pharmacists.
