Spravato

Spravato® is a prescription nasal spray containing esketamine, a fast-acting medication approved by the FDA for adults with treatment-resistant depression. Unlike traditional antidepressants, which can take weeks to work, Spravato® targets key brain receptors to deliver rapid symptom relief when combined with oral antidepressants.

How Does Spravato® Work?

Spravato® acts on NMDA receptors in the brain to promote neuroplasticity, or the brain’s ability to adapt and form new connections. This can result in improved mood and reduced depression symptoms within hours or days for many patients.

Who Can Benefit from Spravato®?

Spravato® is designed for individuals who:

  • Have not responded to at least two antidepressant treatments.
  • Experience persistent symptoms of depression despite therapy or medications.
  • Are seeking a fast-acting, research-backed alternative.

Note: A healthcare provider will assess your medical history and current condition to determine if Spravato® is the right option for you.

What to Expect During Treatment

Spravato® is administered in a controlled clinical environment to ensure your safety. Here’s what happens:

Initial Consultation

    • Meet with a provider to discuss your symptoms and treatment goals.

Patient Success Stories

“Seven months ago, my depression was at an all-time high. I was on seven different medications just to try and manage it, and I felt like I was stuck in a never-ending cycle. I was nervous about starting Spravato treatment, but I found a support group on Facebook that gave me the courage to take that first step.

From the very beginning, the team at Axis Healthcare made the entire process so easy. The staff was incredibly kind, understanding, and accommodating every step of the way. The treatment itself was simple, and aside from about 15 minutes of a euphoric feeling during each session, I haven’t experienced any side effects.

Thanks to Spravato, my life has completely turned around. Not only has my depression improved dramatically, but I’ve also been able to reduce my medications from seven down to just two. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Axis Healthcare and Spravato to anyone who feels like they’ve run out of options.

I’ve been sharing my journey on social media to encourage others because this treatment has truly been a miracle for me. I call it my miracle drug because it has given me my life back.”
