Key takeaways
- Care for kratom and 7-OH: medically supervised detox (ASAM 3.7) and integrated residential treatment (ASAM 3.5) in one Broomfield facility.
- Why 7-OH needs extra care: concentrated 7-OH products are far stronger than kratom leaf, and withdrawal can look like opioid withdrawal.
- Safe withdrawal: licensed nursing staff are available around the clock, and medications can ease symptoms and cravings.
- Mental health care included: anxiety, depression, trauma, and other co-occurring conditions are treated alongside substance use.
- How to pay: Health First Colorado (Medicaid) accepted, plus Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Multi-Plan, Rocky Mountain Health Plan, and UnitedHealthcare.
Understanding kratom addiction and 7-OH addiction
Kratom is a plant product whose main alkaloid, mitragynine, acts on the same brain receptors as opioids. With daily or high-dose use, the body adapts, and stopping can trigger withdrawal and strong cravings.
7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH, often searched as 7OH) occurs in trace amounts in kratom leaf. The 7-OH products sold as tablets, gummies, drink mixes, and shots are concentrated or lab-made, far more potent than leaf kratom, and often marketed at gas stations and smoke shops. 7-OH is not approved by the FDA for any medical use.
Because 7-OH is stronger and can wear off quickly, dependence can build faster and withdrawal often feels closer to opioid withdrawal. Some people start with kratom leaf, or with kratom as a way to manage opioid withdrawal, and move to 7-OH as tolerance builds.
Signs of kratom addiction or 7-OH dependence
Needing more kratom or 7-OH to get the same effect
Dosing on a schedule to avoid feeling sick
Withdrawal symptoms between doses or when you try to stop
Strong cravings, or failed attempts to cut back
Using kratom or 7-OH alongside alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids
Hiding use, or spending more time and money getting products
Kratom and 7-OH withdrawal timeline
Timing varies with how much you use, how long you’ve used, and whether you use 7-OH. 7-OH withdrawal can start sooner and feel more intense than withdrawal from leaf kratom.
12 to 24 hours
Symptoms typically begin within 12 to 24 hours of the last kratom dose, and often sooner with 7-OH.
Days 2 to 4
Aches, restlessness, sweating, nausea, diarrhea, anxiety, and cravings are usually strongest here.
Within about a week
Most physical symptoms resolve within one week. Sleep problems, low mood, and cravings can last longer.
Heavy long-term use, 7-OH use, or use alongside alcohol or benzodiazepines can make withdrawal more severe. That’s when medically supervised detox is the safest starting point.

Our kratom and 7-OH treatment programs
Treatment follows ASAM levels of care. Your clinical assessment decides where you start, and you can move from detox into residential treatment in the same building.
Medically Supervised Detox
Licensed nursing staff are available around the clock, with 24/7 medical oversight throughout withdrawal. Medications may be prescribed to ease symptoms and reduce cravings. A typical stay is three to five days.
Residential Treatment
Daily individual and group therapy, medication management, and relapse-prevention planning while your body and mind stabilize. Residential programs generally range from 28 to 90 days.
IOP & Virtual IOP
Continued therapy while you live at home, in person or virtually when travel to Broomfield is a barrier.
Foundry offers separate Women’s and Men’s Treatment Programs. Each keeps the same medical oversight while tailoring groups and therapy to shared experiences.

Choosing the right level of care
Withdrawal risk, medical stability, mental health needs, and your home environment decide which level is safe.
| Level | Who it’s for | Typical length | Medical support |
|---|---|---|---|
| Medically supervised detox (ASAM 3.7) | Active kratom or 7-OH withdrawal, heavy daily use, 7-OH use, or use with alcohol or benzodiazepines | Three to five days, based on need | Licensed nursing staff around the clock; 24/7 medical oversight |
| Integrated residential treatment (ASAM 3.5) | Medically stable after detox, needs structure and daily therapy, or has co-occurring mental health needs | 28 to 90 days | Medication management with on-site clinical team |
| Inpatient treatment program | Adults who need structured, on-site programming | Set by clinical need | On-site clinical team |
| Intensive outpatient program (IOP) | Lower withdrawal risk, stable housing, and support at home | Set by clinical need | Outpatient follow-up |
| Virtual IOP | Step-down support when travel is a barrier | Set by clinical need | Virtual follow-up |
These ranges describe typical patterns, not commitments. Your length of stay depends on how you respond to treatment and on what your plan authorizes.
How kratom and 7-OH withdrawal is treated
There’s no single approved medication for kratom withdrawal, so care is built around your symptoms, your substance history, and your safety.
Symptom-targeted medications, prescribed when clinically indicated to ease aches, nausea, diarrhea, anxiety, and sleep problems.
Buprenorphine and other MAT, considered for severe 7-OH or kratom dependence, or when opioid use is also involved.
Close monitoring of vital signs and symptoms, with escalation to emergency care if medical needs exceed our scope.
History-guided screening, because standard urine drug screens often don’t detect kratom.

Co-occurring mental health care
Many people with kratom addiction or 7-OH addiction first used these products to manage pain, anxiety, low mood, or opioid withdrawal. Treating the substance use without those needs leaves the reason for use in place, so we treat both together in one plan.

Testimonials
Frequently asked questions about kratom and 7-OH addiction treatment
Is 7-OH the same as kratom?
No. Kratom leaf contains only trace amounts of 7-OH. The 7-OH products sold as tablets, gummies, and shots are concentrated or lab-made, far more potent than leaf kratom, and carry a higher risk of dependence and opioid-like withdrawal.
Is 7-OH more addictive than kratom?
Concentrated 7-OH is much stronger than kratom leaf, so tolerance and dependence can develop faster. Withdrawal can also start sooner and feel more intense, which is why we assess 7-OH use carefully before choosing a level of care.
Do I need medical detox for kratom or 7-OH withdrawal?
Medical detox is recommended if you use kratom or 7-OH daily or in high doses, have had severe withdrawal before, or also use alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids. Admissions reviews your history during the pre-screen and recommends the safest level of care.
How long does kratom or 7-OH treatment take?
A typical detox stay is three to five days. Residential treatment generally ranges from 28 to 90 days, with length based on your withdrawal, medical needs, and progress.
Will my insurance or Medicaid cover kratom addiction treatment?
Many plans cover medically necessary addiction treatment. Foundry accepts Health First Colorado (Medicaid) and is in-network with Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Multi-Plan, Rocky Mountain Health Plan, and UnitedHealthcare. Verify your benefits online or call admissions.
Will I be offered buprenorphine or other MAT?
MAT may be considered when clinically indicated, especially for severe 7-OH dependence or when opioid use is also involved. Your care team explains the risks, benefits, and alternatives before any medication starts.
How is 7-OH treatment different from treatment for heroin or fentanyl?
7-OH and kratom cause opioid-like withdrawal, but timing and intensity differ from heroin or fentanyl. Clinicians tailor detox and medication decisions to your substance profile and symptoms after a full assessment.
Can I be admitted from the emergency department or a referral?
Yes, when medically appropriate. Our detox units are typically available immediately, and admissions coordinates referrals, benefits, and transfer logistics. If you’re in medical danger right now, call 911.
