A bar graph featuring different examples of health warning labels on cigarette packaging provide a visual glimpse of information from an accompanying fact sheet.

Policies to increase the price of cigarettes, increase the size of graphic health warning labels, require cigarettes be sold in plain packaging without branding, and ban flavored cigarettes have the potential to support adults who smoke and want to quit. 

This study analyzed data from a national, online survey of adults in the Philippines who smoke to estimate what policies could potentially support increased cigarette quit behavior. The results are detailed in this fact sheet.
