Objectives: The Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) is the first international convention in the public health field. This study examines whether countries have maximized the effectiveness of tobacco regulation by appropriately utilizing measures to reduce tobacco consumption and smoking rates. It studies the effectiveness of Tobacco control law policies in various countries.
Methods: Using ecological and descriptive correlation, this study attempted to verify the correlation between the Tobacco control law, the measures that help countries reduce the demand for tobacco (MPOWER) and the smoking rate.
Results: It was found that the Tobacco control law was related to lower smoking rates and higher levels of implementation of the MPOWER policy. The results showed that the performance of related MPOWER policies increased according to the category of the Tobacco control law.
Conclusion: FCTC measures to reduce tobacco use are effective. Enacting and strengthening comprehensive Tobacco control laws is necessary for implementing more effective tobacco control policies.
