Methods such as frequency statistics, association rule analysis, clustering analysis, and factor analysis were used to analyze the medication law of the prescriptions.Results:The results showed that a total of 91 prescriptions were included, involving 134 kinds of Chinese materia medica. Five drugs were with a usage frequency of >30%. The top 4 categories with medication frequency were herbs for tonifying deficiency, herbs for inducing diuresis and draining dampness, herbs for relieving exterior syndrome and herbs for regulating qi. The properties of the included herbs were characterized by mild and warm, and the tastes were mainly sweet, pungent and bitter. The majority of meridian tropism was kidney meridian, supplemented by spleen, liver and lung meridians. The association rule analysis showed eight high-relevance medicine pairs, and four new candidate prescriptions were summarized after the clustering analysis, and six common factors were extracted by factor analysis.Conclusions:The location of the lesion of overactive bladder is mainly about the kidney, related to the spleen, liver and lung. And the pathogenesis is based on the kidney deficiency, which also due to the adverse qi transformation in triple energizer.
