What is Spravato?

While it may sound like the name of a fictional ‘80s superhero, Spravato is actually an FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray for treating depression, offering a new option for individuals who haven’t found relief with traditional therapies.

If you’ve tried two or more antidepressant medications without success, you may have treatment-resistant depression that can be effectively treated by Spravato.

Spravato is designed to work differently than conventional antidepressants by targeting the brain’s glutamate system—a key player in mood regulation—helping to rapidly reduce depressive symptoms for those who need it most. When administered as a nasal spray, the esketamine is quickly absorbed into your system, jumpstarting neural pathways associated with mood improvement.

If you’ve been curious about the use of ketamine for depression but aren’t sure where to start, Spravato provides a unique option as part of a personalized treatment plan to help overcome your symptoms and finally feel good again.

The Benefits of Spravato for Depression

The benefits of Spravato treatment extend far beyond traditional antidepressants, addressing both immediate symptoms of depression as well as long-term mental health and wellness. Spravato’s benefits include:

  • Rapid relief, with many patients noticing an improvement in their mood and outlook quickly
  • Non-invasive and convenient application/administration
  • Targeted action that helps address depression symptoms that haven’t responded well to other medications.

By combining the latest in neuroscience research with personalized attention to your needs, Spravato offers a pathway to improved mental well-being that may have seemed out of reach for some. We’ve seen how new treatments for depression can transform lives, and we’re committed to helping you discover if Spravato could be the breakthrough you’ve been seeking.
