Spravato

Spravato is used to treat major depressive disorder in patients who have not responded to first-line treatments, including oral antidepressants and psychotherapy. MDD is a serious condition affecting over 16 million people in the U.S. and over 300 million worldwide. It can leave individuals unable to work, maintain relationships, or attend to self-care, and it is considered the leading cause of disability worldwide.

We offer Spravato treatment to patients who have been referred by their treating psychiatrist and for whom it has been determined to be an appropriate option. Your treatment plan will be individualized to meet your unique needs. Please note that initiating treatment with Spravato is more involved than other treatment options, and scheduling a consultation does not guarantee treatment. We recommend checking with your insurance provider to determine whether this medication is covered under your plan.

• First month: treatment twice weekly
• Second month: treatment once weekly
• After that: treatment once weekly or every two weeks
