Spravato® (Esketamine) Treatment
A Different Approach to Depression Treatment
When traditional antidepressants haven't provided the relief you need, it can be frustrating and discouraging. At Northbound Psychiatry, we understand that depression treatment isn't one-size-fits-all.
We offer Spravato® (esketamine) nasal spray, an FDA-approved treatment that works differently from traditional antidepressants and may provide another option for individuals struggling with depression.
What Is Spravato®?
Spravato® is a prescription nasal spray administered in a certified healthcare setting under medical supervision.
Unlike most traditional antidepressants, which primarily target serotonin, norepinephrine, or dopamine, Spravato® works on the brain's glutamate system.
Spravato® is FDA-approved for:
Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) in adults who have not responded adequately to at least two antidepressant treatments.
Depressive symptoms in adults with major depressive disorder (MDD) with acute suicidal ideation or behavior, when used with an oral antidepressant.
Spravato® may be used alone or with an oral antidepressant for treatment-resistant depression.
