Abstract: OBJECTIVE: Drug abuse can damage a number of physiological functions of the human body to a certain extent, such as a phenomenon similar to neurasthenia to the nervous system, making the body unresponsive, walking unsteady, etc.; suggesting that drugintake may react to the body. The ability and balance control ability have an impact. This paper aims to compare the balance (dynamic and static) and reaction speeds of Anesthetic drugs, Psychotropic drugs and mixed drugs, and explore the differences in the effects of different types of drugs on the body's nervous control system. METHODS: This experiment conducted a random sampling test on drug rehabilitation centers in eight provinces across the country to test the abstainers' dynamic balance ability and static balance ability. RESULTS: The results obtained after the physical fitness test were compared. One-legged standing balance test: the abstainers who took the Psychotropic drugs stood longer than the Anesthetic drugs, but the mixed drugs did not differ. Star Excursion Balance Test: The overall appearance of large, small presents as Anesthetic drugs, mixed drugs and Psychotropic drugs. Reaction time: The overall reaction speed is from fast to slow: people who smoke Psychotropic drugs, those who use mixed drugs, and those who use Anesthetic drugs. Conclusion: Psychotropic drugs will give priority to destroying the dynamic balance of the human body. Because mixed drugs are a combination of new and Anesthetic drugs, the damage to the dynamic balance of the human body is second only. The Anesthetic drugs have the priority to destroy the static balance of the human body. The reaction rate is the same as above, and the mixing is only second. However, its specific mechanism has yet to be further studied.
