How Does SPRAVATO® Work?

A low dose of SPRAVATO® will be administered via intranasal spray. After five minutes another small dose will be administered. Your provider will monitor you for a two-hour waiting period. We encourage you to wear eyeshades, listen to relaxing music, and focus inward during this time.

What To Expect

You will be monitored very closely during your SPRAVATO® treatment. This will include blood pressure, pulse measurements, and some psychological measurements before and after your session.

What Are The Side Effects of SPRAVATO®?

SPRAVATO®’s side effects wear off quite quickly; you will be able to return home about 2 hours after treatment is complete. Patients are required to have another person drive them home. You should not drive until the next day after a restful sleep.

During treatment, patients may experience an altered or dream like state, which most describe as very pleasing.

Is SPRAVATO® Right For You?

SPRAVATO® is specifically intended for adult individuals who are grappling with severe symptoms associated with major depressive disorders, including suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Additionally, it is intended for those experiencing treatment-resistant depression, a condition that can only be diagnosed and evaluated by a qualified medical professional. If you have undergone two or more preliminary depression treatments, such as talk therapy and prescription medications, or more advanced therapies like TMS or standard ketamine therapy, without any sustained relief or positive outcomes, then SPRAVATO® could potentially be the ideal solution for you.

What's The Process?

The first step towards receiving SPRAVATO® treatment involves undergoing a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, which is fully covered by insurance. This assessment will help determine if SPRAVATO® is a suitable treatment option for you, especially if you have been diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression and have previously attempted two or more unsuccessful treatments. Once it is established that SPRAVATO® is the best course of action, our certified technicians will provide a thorough explanation of the treatment process and important safety considerations to ensure you are fully informed about what to expect.

During each treatment session, our qualified clinicians will supervise you as you administer the SPRAVATO® nasal spray, demonstrating the correct technique. Following administration, you will be asked to rest comfortably while our staff monitors you closely for any potential side effects. After a two-hour observation period, our technicians will conclude the session, and you will be free to leave.
