Background. Causing approximately 8 million deaths each year, tobacco smoking represents a significant public health concern. Evidence shows that smoking significantly impairs antibody production and immune cell activity following vaccination. Objectives. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the literature regarding how smoking reduces the effectiveness of active immunization by affecting vaccine-induced immune response. Methods. This study was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines, and the protocol was registered on the PROSPERO platform (ID: CRD42024582638). PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were consulted as bibliographic and citation databases. Studies published in Italian and English and that aimed to investigate the effects of exposure to active and passive tobacco smoking on vaccine-induced immune response were included. Results. Thirty-four studies were selected. Overall, a decrease in antibody levels and avidity and in immune cell production were observed in individuals exposed to smoke. The meta-analysis showed a weighted mean difference between smokers and non-smokers equal to 0.65 (95% CI: 0.10–1.19, p = 0.02) for vaccinations against COVID-19, influenza, pneumococcus, HBV, HPV, tetanus, pertussis, polio, haemophilus influenzae type b, measles–mumps–rubella, and recurrent urinary tract infections. Conclusions. Smoking cessation campaigns should be considered in order to increase the effectiveness of vaccination programs. Furthermore, the opportunity to adopt different vaccine dosing schemes for smokers and non-smokers, especially in acute epidemics, should be considered.
