Datos obtenidos: 2025.   Página actualizada: 2026-03-30

En Senegal, la prevalencia del consumo de tabaco entre adultos de 15 años o más fue del 6 % en 2022, con una marcada diferencia entre géneros. Entre los hombres, la prevalencia fue mayor, alcanzando el 11.7 %, mientras que en las mujeres fue considerablemente menor, con un 0.6 %. En comparación, la prevalencia total de tabaquismo en adultos en 2020 fue del 5.5 %, con un 11.1 % en hombres y un 0.5 % en mujeres, respectivamente. El número total de personas fumadoras en 2022 se estimó en 590,302, lo que representa un aumento respecto a las 507,888 personas registradas en 2020. Como referencia, la prevalencia de consumo diario de tabaco en adultos en 2017 fue del 4.9 %, con un 9.7 % en hombres y un 0.3 % en mujeres. Los datos sobre mortalidad atribuible al tabaquismo de 2021 indican que el consumo de tabaco causó el 2.85 % de todas las muertes en Senegal, correspondiendo al 3.92 % de las defunciones en hombres y al 1.51 % en mujeres. El número anual de muertes relacionadas con el tabaquismo en 2021 fue de 3,171, de las cuales 2,429 correspondieron a hombres y 742 a mujeres. Estas cifras ponen de manifiesto el desafío permanente para la salud pública que representa el consumo de tabaco en Senegal, lo que hace necesarias intervenciones regulatorias y sanitarias continuas para mitigar sus efectos perjudiciales sobre la salud.

African Region - Increasing Daily Tobacco Prevalence Trends (Male and Female)

African Region - Increasing Daily Tobacco Prevalence Trends (Male and Female)

- No Fire, No Smoke: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction

This figure, using WHO data, shows the steep gradient of increases in smoking prevalence estimates in specific African countries, where the projected increases (both sexes) in daily smoking are 5 percent and higher.

In countries that have experienced steep falls in smoking prevalence over the years, the graphs have begun to level off, for example in Australia, suggesting there remains a substantial number of people who, for whatever reason, are determined to carry on smoking. The WHO trend data to 2025 predicts only very modest falls in smoking levels in several countries and predicts some rapid increases, mainly in Africa, the Middle East, some parts of Eastern Europe and republics of the former Soviet Union. Some of the more extreme examples include Cameroon (from 14 percent to 43 percent); Republic of Congo (from 14 percent to 48 percent) and Bahrain (from 25 percent to 60 percent).
