About the Treatment

What is Spravato?

Spravato (esketamine) is an FDA-approved nasal spray medication that represents a breakthrough in depression treatment. It works through a different mechanism than traditional antidepressants, targeting the glutamate system to help restore neural connections in the brain.

Unlike conventional antidepressants that can take weeks to show effects, many patients experience improvement within hours to days of Spravato treatment. This rapid action can be life-changing for those struggling with severe depression.

Spravato is approved for two specific conditions:

  • Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) - When two or more antidepressants haven't provided adequate relief
  • Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) with Suicidal Ideation - For adults with acute suicidal thoughts or behaviors
