N2  - Bronchiectasis is a debilitating disease which arises from the vicious cycle of chronic airway infection, inflammation and structural damage (1,2). Hemoptysis, a prominent symptom associated with anxiety and depression (3), has been reportedly common, possibly because of the chronic airway inflammation and/or structural damage (4,5). Unfortunately, effective treatment remains scant, particularly for recurrent hemoptysis. Adjunct therapy which targets at ameliorating or preventing from hemoptysis would lead to an improved quality-of-life in patients with bronchiectasis.
