Abstract

Multiple tobacco use and combustible non-cigarette tobacco products smoking is common among South African adolescents. Understanding different patterns of multiple tobacco use and combustible non-cigarette tobacco products smoking can help to inform prevention and cessation programs for adolescents. Given the risk adolescents face, tobacco cessation interventions tailored to their tobacco product of choice are urgently needed.
