Hemoptysis due to bronchiectasis is usually treated with Anluoxue tablets for hemostasis. Calcium gluconate tablets may also be added concurrently, along with oral administration of Yunnan Baiyao capsules or Yunnan Baiyao powder. However, these should be combined with antibacterial therapy using penicillin, cephalosporin, or azithromycin antibiotics. The combination of the above medications can achieve a certain therapeutic effect.
