What Is Spravato®?
Spravato® (esketamine nasal spray) is the first and only FDA-approved nasal spray for adults with:
• Treatment-resistant depression (TRD)
• Major depressive disorder (MDD) with suicidal thoughts or actions
Spravato® works differently from traditional antidepressants by targeting glutamate pathways in the brain to help improve mood and relieve symptoms when other medications haven’t worked.
How Spravato® Therapy Works
/sc-assets/prd/practices/44bdca75-252a-4fe1-ba5b-20b74477c026/Artboard 1c.png)
You self-administer the nasal spray under direct medical supervision in our comfortable, private treatment room.

You’ll stay and relax for about 2 hours while our care team monitors you for any side effects

A trusted family member or caregiver will need to drive you home afterward.
To help prevent nausea, avoid eating for 2 hours and drinking for 30 minutes before treatment.
