The government, led by the Ministry of Health is in the fight against smoking fulfill their niche - legislatively secured a ban on advertising, placing warnings on cigarette packs, restrictions on the sale, the ban on smoking, etc.

On September 18, 2010 in Uzbekistan was a complete ban on any form of advertising of tobacco products and alcohol. The reason for this was the signing by President Islam Karimov appropriate changes and amendments to the law "On Advertising". In accordance with the Act was introduced "a comprehensive ban on advertising in all forms of tobacco products and alcoholic beverages of any strength, including beer."

Many smokers claim that restrictions on smoking an act that violates their rights. In the case, they do not talk about a harm is caused ti others. Scientifically proven that smoke affects not only the active but also passive smokers. I.e. those who inhale tobacco smoke, being around a smoker. Moreover, tobacco smoke affects non-smokers are much stronger than the smoker. Write about all the poisonous action of cigarettes too much. Say about the facts: every cigarette you smoke takes over 5 minutes of life, reducing the life expectancy of the average smoker of 15 years. 

The ban on smoking in public places in European countries showed a high efficiency. For example, in Italy for a few years to 30% reduced the number of heart attacks. In Portugal, a year after the introduction of the law of the number of smokers has decreased by 5 percent.

Since April 2012, the Uzbekistan came Law "on the restriction of distribution and consumption of alcohol and tobacco products" governing the restrictions on the sale, consumption and advertising of tobacco products.
The law obliges manufacturers to place health warnings on tobacco products, which occupies at least 40% of the main area of ​​the front and rear.
