Tobacco use and Tuberculosis (TB) presents a huge public health challenge globally. Tobacco and TB have consistent and strong epidemiological evidence with smokers having higher odds of TB infection, disease, mortality, delayed diagnosis etc. Overall, limited evidence exists about the extent of TB-tobacco integration. The aim of the current short communication is to highlight comprehensive strategy for addressing TB-tobacco comorbidities.
