The survey was conducted among 29540 students in different secondary schools. All interviewers were 17.42 +/- 1.14 years old. The aim od this work was to define the relation between smoking adolescent and their health. The group of smokers consisted of 5112 (60.26%) men and 3370 (33.70%) women. The main causes of initiating smoking reported by respondents included curiosity--(47.91%) followed by stress (39.82%) and alcohol (6.77%). Smoking tobacco by parents at home results in inspiring by their children the unwholesome ingredients of tobacco smoke. Frequent staying among tobacco smokers significantly influences decision of starting or giving up smoking tobacco (59.24%). The obtain results may be helpful in preparing effective educational and preventive project among students, which can eliminate or lower the influence of factors predisposing to start and continue smoking tobacco. Special programs should be worked out for children showing early health consequences of smoking cigarettes. Giving up smoking is possible for "young" smokers, if they have not developed the symptoms of addiction.
