Tobacco use contributes to poverty; diversion of household spending from other basic needs such as food and family needs is substituted by expense of tobacco consumption. Illness caused by tobacco leads to increased out-of-pocket spending, and tobacco-related morbidity and mortality are high in the productive age group.
