WHAT IS SPRAVATO®?


Spravato®, chemically known as esketamine, is a nasal spray approved by the FDA for use in conjunction with an oral antidepressant for adults with treatment-resistant depression. It is related to the drug ketamine, an anesthetic that has been used off-label for years as an antidepressant at lower doses.

HOW DOES SPRAVATO® WORK?


While the exact mechanisms aren't entirely clear, it's believed that Spravato® affects the brain's neurotransmitters, particularly glutamate, to help restore synaptic connections in brain cells and improve mood more rapidly than traditional antidepressants.

  • How is Spravato® administered?

    Spravato® is self-administered as a nasal spray under the supervision of our trained healthcare professionals, ensuring safety and proper dosage.

  • Is there a cost associated with the Spravato® session?

    Yes, there is an out-of-pocket "observation" fee for each Spravato® session. This fee is for professional oversight and monitoring during the administration of the medication.

  • How long does a Spravato® session take?

    A typical session, including post-administration monitoring, lasts about two hours.

  • Are there side effects?

    Potential side effects exist, including dizziness, nausea, and an increase in blood pressure. Please consult with our healthcare providers to discuss any concerns.

  • How often will I need treatment?

    The initial phase typically involves twice-weekly treatments for the first month. Maintenance phases might range from weekly to monthly sessions, tailored to individual needs.

  • Will my insurance cover Spravato® treatment?

    Insurance coverage varies. We advise checking with your insurance regarding coverage and being aware of the out-of-pocket "observation" fee.

  • Can I drive after a Spravato® session?

    No. Driving or operating machinery should be avoided until the next day after a restful sleep. Arrange transportation post-treatment.
