However, evidence on tobacco self-medication to improve sleep remains limited, particularly among adolescents. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the prevalence of tobacco self-medication in adolescents and analyze the association with sleep quality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted with 1,121 Spanish adolescents (mean age\u2009=\u200916.2\u2009\u00b1\u20090.7; 57.1% female) from public secondary schools.

Adolescents smoking cigarettes for self-medication showed significantly higher cigarette consumption compared to those with past-month use only (mean diff.\u2009=\u20092.1; \u03b7\u00b2\u2009=\u2009.10) and longer regular use (mean diff.\u2009=\u20096.9\u2009months; \u03b7\u00b2\u2009=\u2009.08). Self-medication was associated with poorer sleep quality, shorter sleep, longer sleep onset latency, and frequent nighttime awakenings. Adolescents experiencing poor sleep and frequent awakenings had twice the likelihood of using tobacco as a sleep aid in the past month (OR\u2009=\u20092.1 and OR\u2009=\u20092.2, respectively).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study brings attention to adolescent self-medication practices and their associations with poor sleep outcomes.
