Danggui Beimu Kushen Wan (DBKW) is a classic herbal formula for difficult urination and has been widely used for urinary‐related disorders and cancers in current clinical practice. This study aimed to comprehensively review the phytochemistry, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics of DBKW in experimental studies. We searched 21 databases to identify experimental studies of DBKW. We also searched 11 databases to identify and summarize compounds from DBKW's ingredients. A total of 423 studies of DBKW were identified and 15 studies were included. For Angelicae Sinensis Radix (ASR) and Sophorae Flavescentis Radix (SFR), 2,425 and 2,843 studies were identified, and 42 and 33 studies were included, respectively. Eight compounds were found in the whole formula, 408 compounds from ASR, and 277 compounds from SFR. DBKW may have anticancer effects (inhibiting the growth of tumors, regulating cell proliferation, inducing tumor cell apoptosis, suppressing invasion and metastasis of cancer, enhancing the therapeutic effects of chemotherapy, and relieving toxicity of chemotherapy) and have benefits on chronic prostatitis (reducing inflammation, inhibiting oxidation, regulating sex hormone, and stimulating immune system). The pharmacokinetics of the seven primary compounds from DBKW were also summarized. DBKW contains multiple compounds that may act on more than one pathway of the conditions simultaneously.
