Spravato is the brand name for esketamine that is used to relieve the symptoms of treatment-resistant depression and major depressive disorder. Spravato is given as a nasal spray, as opposed to ketamine, which we primarily administer intravenously.
Spravato tends to produce less intense sensations than IV ketamine. While taking Spravato, you may feel “floaty,” peaceful, and relaxed. Ultimately, Spravato has been shown to alleviate symptoms of stubborn depression after just one treatment.
This led the FDA to approve Spravato as an effective depression treatment in 2019. In 2025, the FDA approved Spravato as a monotherapy, meaning your insurance can cover it even if you aren’t taking an antidepressant.
Because of the potential for side effects from Spravato, including dizziness and nausea, the drug can only be administered at clinics certified in the Spravato Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS).
The Good Drop is proudly certified in the Spravato REMS and is making appointments for Spravato treatments now at our clinic in Avoca, PA!

While these side effects may be unpleasant, not everyone experiences them, and they are usually not a cause for concern. They go away on their own as you adjust to the medicine.
In 2025, the FDA approved Spravato as a monotherapy for patients with treatment-resistant depression and major depressive disorder. That means your health insurance provider can now cover Spravato therapy even if you aren’t taking an oral antidepressant.
Spravato can relieve symptoms of depression just as IV ketamine can, but its dissociative side effects are typically less intense and shorter-lasting.
You should feel more peaceful and relaxed throughout your body while taking Spravato as compared to the racing thoughts and hallucinatory experiences of taking IV ketamine.
