Icon Medicine Family Practice and Behavioral Health Adds Kratom Use Disorder Treatment

Icon Medicine Family Practice has started treating Kratom Use Disorder (KUD) as part of its addiction treatment service. The Hyattsville, Maryland practice began offering the care on January 1, 2026. Patients can be seen in person in Maryland or by telehealth in Maryland, Virginia and Florida.

Kratom Use Disorder is a clinically recognized substance use disorder that follows the same DSM-5 diagnostic framework as other substance use disorders, and it is treatable. Signs include compulsive kratom use despite negative effects on health, relationships or work. An inability to cut down or control use despite repeated attempts. Tolerance, meaning more kratom is needed for the same effect. And withdrawal symptoms such as muscle aches, insomnia, anxiety and nausea when stopping or reducing use. The practice offers same-day Suboxone and naltrexone treatment for opioid, alcohol and kratom use disorder. Its provider is DEA-certified to prescribe buprenorphine-based medications and has focused expertise in medication-assisted treatment for substance use disorders. A self-pay visit costs $150, and most major insurance plans are accepted.

The service is for people in Maryland, Virginia and Florida who use kratom and want medical help to stop or cut down. Icon Medicine Family Practice is a board-certified family practice licensed in all three states. It reserves same-day appointment slots and offers telehealth seven days a week. Kratom Use Disorder treatment joins six other services at the practice: mental and behavioral health, medical weight management, men's health, primary care, urgent care and a travel clinic. In Maryland, the practice serves the greater Baltimore and DC metro area, including Annapolis, Anne Arundel County, Silver Spring and Langley Park, with telehealth also reaching Baltimore City, Glen Burnie, Pasadena, Columbia, St. Mary's County, the Eastern Shore, Elkton, Hagerstown and Salisbury. Patients have given the practice a 4.9 out of 5 rating across more than 80 Google reviews.
