Abstract: This study was aimed to investigate rules of medicine selections of four Meng-He (MH) medical schools. Based on frequency analysis and Apriori algorithm of association rules, data mining was conducted on 60 cases of four MH medical schools in the treatment of Chuan syndrome. The results showed that among 60 cases, Xing-Ren (XR), Ban-Xia (BX), Fu-Ling (FL), Hua-Ju-Hong (HJH), Su-Zi (SZ) and Bu-Gu-Zhi (BGZ) were the most com-monly used single medicine. The most commonly used medicine groups were SZ-HJH-FL, XR-Y i-Y i-Ren (YYR), XR-HJH, XR-SZ and so on. It was concluded that four MH medical schools in the treatment of Chuan syndrome mainly used antitussive and antiasthmatic Chinese medicines such as YR, BX, SZ, and complemented with BGZ for deficiency-nourishing, FL for dampness-removing, HJH for qi-regulating. It provided references for the clinical practice and treatment of Chuan syndrome.
