Spravato (Ketamine) is an FDA-approved option for patients with depression and other mental health conditions who have not had success with traditional medication management and therapy.
It is a nasal spray given in an office setting where patients are monitored for two hours. Patients come in to do treatments twice a week for four weeks, then once a week for four weeks, and then every two weeks after that. Over time, some treatments are spaced out even further. Some patients will see a positive response in their symptoms in the first few treatments, but it is also common to require a few weeks of treatment to see improvement. Patients often note improvement in mood, more energy, more enjoyment in activities, and more motivation.
