Objectives: This study was intended to review the research trends of treating neuropsychiatric diseases and symptoms with Traditional Chinese Medicine containing Haematitum.

Methods: Articles were obtained through the CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) by searching with ‘Haematitum' as the main key word,
and supportive words related with neuropsychiatric diseases and symptoms were selected.
There were 61 articles related to clinical fields, which were then classified according to study design.

Results: The 61 articles were categorized into the following types of study design: 3 randomized controlled trials,
1 quasi-randomized trial, 3 simple-designed clinical trials, and 54 case studies.
Decoctions containing Haematitum were used to treat diseases and symptoms such as vertigo, headache, stroke, epilepsy, neurosis, globus hystericus,
fishbilepoisoning, insomnia, mania, post-traumatic brain syndrome, and kinesia.
All articles reported a good rate of effectiveness.
There was no poor responsiveness regarding the effects of Haematitum in 9 studies, but it was not mentioned in the other 52 studies.
Decoctions self-prepared by the authors were used in 28 studies.
Modified Seonbokdeja-tang, modified Banhabeakchulcheonma-tang, modified Ondam-tang were used in that order of frequency.
The daily dosage of Haematitum provided was 0.2∼6 g in powder, and 9∼60 g in decoction.

Conclusions: Decoctions containing Haematitum are used restrictively in the neuropsychiatric clinical scene.
While there were no reports of poor responsiveness of the effects of Haematitum, more research is needed to confirm its clinical stability.
