  • Increased lower respiratory tract infections, such as bronchitis and pneumonia
  • More middle ear infections
  • Higher risk for low birth weight babies
  • Increased risk for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)

Visit the Secondhand Smoke webpage to learn more.

A few simple ways to make your home and car smoke-free include:

  • Declare your home and car smoke-free.
  • Choose not to smoke in your home and car.
  • Do not allow anyone to smoke in your home or car.
  • Until you can quit, choose to smoke outside. Moving to another room or opening a window is not enough to protect your family from secondhand smoke.

If family members want to quit, be patient and supportive. For help quitting smoking, call the Nevada Tobacco Users' Helpline, University of Nevada School of Medicine at 1-800 QUIT NOW.
