Conditions

  • Hemoptysis

Interventions

DRUG

Tranexamic Acid 500 MG

Jet nebulization (a device connected by tubing to compressed air or oxygen to flow at high velocity through a liquid medicine to turn it into an aerosol, which is then inhaled by the patient). The nebulization lasts 10 minutes. Posology: 500 mg x 3/day (= 500 mg / 8 hours) Treatments duration: 3 days

DRUG

Terlipressin

Jet nebulization (a device connected by tubing to compressed air or oxygen to flow at high velocity through a liquid medicine to turn it into an aerosol, which is then inhaled by the patient). The nebulization lasts 10 minutes. Posology: 1 mg x 3/day (= 1 mg / 8 hours) Treatments duration: 3 days

DRUG

Placebo

Jet nebulization (a device connected by tubing to compressed air or oxygen to flow at high velocity through a liquid medicine to turn it into an aerosol, which is then inhaled by the patient). The nebulization lasts 10 minutes. Posology: 5ml x 3/day (= 5 ml / 8 hours) Treatments duration: 3 days.
