Objective: To study the optimized extraction process of berberine hydrochloride, one of the effective parts of Kuolougenwan. Method: An orthogonal experimental design L9(34) test was adopted in this study. And the content of berberine hydrochloride was determined to fit its quality standard, screening out the best method of extraction conditions. Result: The best extracting technical conditions were as follows: 10 times amount of water, extraction for 2 hour and extracted 2 times. Conclusion: The optimized process is simple, fast and feasible with good stability and repeatability.
