Amiodarone is widely used to control fatal arrhythmia. However, amiodarone therapy is associated with a relatively high incidence of pulmonary toxicity, up to 5 to 10%. Typical symptoms are nonspecific and often manifest as nonproductive cough, dyspnea and interstitial infiltrates in patients with acute pneumonitis or chronic fibrosis. However, hemoptysis is a very rare symptom of amiodarone pulmonary toxicity. We report a case of amiodarone pulmonary toxicity, who presented with hemoptysis and was successfully treated with the cessation of amiodarone, with review of the relevant literature. (
