Daochisan is a pediatric famous classical formula in traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） specializing in clearing the heart， disinhibiting water and enriching Yin， which has been inherited and developed by medical experts of successive generations. The formula can be traced back to Xiaoer Yaozheng Zhijue written by QIAN Yi from Song dynasty， and most of the later-developed Daochisan（Daochitang） is based on this formula with additions and subtractions. So as to promote the literature excavation of this formula， this paper conducts a thorough textual research and analysis of the composition， processing， preparation methods， clinical applications of Daochisan based on a systematic collation of relevant ancient and modern literature in the method of bibliometrics. A total of 127 pieces of data involving 86 antient TCM books were collected. Statistical analysis showed that the drug origin of Daochisan is basically clear， we suggest that Rehmanniae Radix is the root tuber of Rehmannia glutinosa of Scrophulariaceae， Akebiae Caulis is the dry stem of Akebia quinata of Lardizabalaceae， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma is the dry root and stem of Glycyrrhiza uralensis of legume， bamboo leaf is the dry leaves of Phyllostachys nigra var. henonis of gramineous plants. Four herbs are recommended to use its raw products. The key information of the dosage and decocting method is supposed to be "4.13 g each of raw Rehmanniae Radix， raw Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， Akebiae Caulis， adding 300 mL of water， and then adding 4.13 g of bamboo leaf， decocting together to 150 mL， taking warmly after meal". Daochisan has the effect of clearing the heart and enriching Yin， disinhibiting water and relieving stranguria， and is widely used in treating symptoms such as heart vexed hotness， hydrodipsia and reddish complexion. Modern studies have showed that Daochisan are frequently used in treating oral ulcer， herpetic stomatitis， urinary tract infection， herpes zoster and other diseases. The above research results can provide scientific reference for the future development and research of Daochisan.
