A member asked:
I know that all smoking is bad but are regular cigarettes worse than filtered cigars or pipe tobacco?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not really: Regular cigarettes may contribute to a higher concentration of resins and other carcinogens than filtered ones, but the difference is not that significant and i would, by no chance, recommend lulling yourself with that fact for an excuse not to quit smoking.

It depends: The biggest factor for risk is the amount of tobacco inhaled?
