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 administer intravenously. We tend to use Spravato at a lower dose than ketamine because of its potency, meaning you as the patient should experience fewer side effects than with ketamine.
All of these benefits led the U.S. Food & Drug Administration to approve Spravato as an effective depression treatment in 2019, provided it’s used alongside an oral 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 right now at our clinic in Avoca, PA!

The FDA approved Spravato for patients with treatment-resistant depression and major depressive disorder. That means you’ve tried at least two antidepressants for six weeks each for a depressive disorder and have not experienced relief from your symptoms.
