Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) represent one of the leading public health problems worldwide and are responsible for significant mortality, disability, and economic burden. Urban populations are particularly vulnerable to chronic diseases due to sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy nutrition, environmental pollution, stress, and reduced physical activity. Preventive healthcare plays an essential role in reducing the prevalence and complications of noncommunicable diseases through early detection, health education, and lifestyle modification. The present study investigates the role of preventive healthcare in reducing non-communicable diseases among urban populations. Particular attention was devoted to health promotion strategies, preventive screening programs, vaccination coverage, public awareness campaigns, and lifestyle-related risk factors influencing population health. The obtained results demonstrated that preventive healthcare measures significantly contribute to reduction of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and other chronic conditions. Early diagnosis, regular medical examinations, and community-based preventive interventions improve disease control and reduce healthcare burden
