Maryland and opioid use disorder
A state where geography creates unequal access to care.
Learn more about how treatment works →
Maryland's opioid crisis is concentrated in specific communities — Baltimore City carries a disproportionate burden, but the Eastern Shore, Western Maryland, and parts of Southern Maryland also face significant challenges with fewer treatment resources relative to need.
Barriers to care vary by location — transportation, work schedules, stigma, cost, and provider availability all play a role. Patients across Maryland can access MyStreetHealth the same way, from wherever they are.
What we treat
Opioid Use Disorder — and the conditions that often come with it.
Opioid Use Disorder (often called opioid addiction)
Buprenorphine (Suboxone / Subutex) prescribed through online visits. FDA-approved, evidence-based. Same physician every visit. Prescription sent to your Maryland pharmacy same day if appropriate.
Depression & anxiety
Medication management alongside buprenorphine for established patients with a previous diagnosis.
ADHD
Present in 1 in 5 people with OUD. Medication management for established patients with a previous diagnosis.
Alcohol use disorder
FDA-approved medications for established patients with alcohol use disorder alongside OUD.
Kratom & 7-OH
Maryland kratom and 7-OH withdrawal treatment.
MyStreetHealth provides telehealth care for kratom withdrawal, kratom dependence, kratom use disorder, and concentrated 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) withdrawal and dependence for Maryland patients. If you are looking for help getting off kratom or 7-OH and want a real clinical plan, we treat patients across Maryland by online visits. Same physician every visit. No insurance required.
What Maryland kratom and 7-OH treatment may include
Depending on what you are using (kratom leaf, kratom extracts, kratom capsules, or concentrated 7-OH tablets, shots, gummies, or drink mixes), how much, how often, how long, and your medical history, a Maryland kratom withdrawal treatment plan may include a structured kratom taper, supportive care during withdrawal symptoms, or buprenorphine (Suboxone) when medication treatment is clinically appropriate. Buprenorphine has been reported in published case reports and case series as a treatment option for kratom and 7-OH withdrawal in selected patients; the decision is individualized by a clinician. Concentrated 7-OH products often require a different treatment approach than natural kratom leaf because the withdrawal may be more opioid-like.
Help getting off kratom or 7-OH in Maryland
The right approach depends on the product, the dose, your history, and what else is going on. A telehealth visit lets us match the plan to your situation — whether that means a gradual kratom taper, supportive care during withdrawal, help managing 7-OH withdrawal, or medication treatment when clinically appropriate. We do not push every patient toward the same answer.

Maryland-specific question
I'm on the Eastern Shore. Does telehealth work?
Yes. The Eastern Shore — Dorchester, Somerset, Wicomico, Worcester, Caroline, Kent, Queen Anne's, and Talbot counties — has fewer treatment providers per capita than the Baltimore metro area. That gap is real. Telehealth works the same regardless of where you are in Maryland. You need a phone or computer and a private space. If you're in any Eastern Shore county, Western Maryland, or anywhere else in the state, we can see you.
