Spravato®, an innovation in the field of mental health, has piqued the interest of many. Let’s delve into what this substance is, how it works, who can benefit, its indications, and how Curated Mental Health provides treatment with professional guidance.
What is Spravato® and How Does it Work?
Spravato® is a nasal form of esketamine, a dissociative anesthetic. Many consider it one of the most significant breakthroughs in depression treatment since the advent of Prozac. Esketamine uniquely acts on the brain, specifically on glutamate receptors, contributing to mood regulation.
Prescribed by a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner and administered in a controlled environment, Spravato® is self-administered intranasally in the office under the care and supervision of an on-site registered nurse or trained technician.
Who is it Indicated for?
Spravato® is generally indicated for adults struggling with treatment-resistant depression. It is crucial to discuss treatment suitability with a healthcare professional for each specific case.
Creator of Spravato®?
Spravato® was developed by Janssen Pharmaceuticals, a leading pharmaceutical company. Its development resulted from extensive research to offer an innovative option for those facing persistent mental health challenges.
Pre-Session Indications for Spravato®:
Before initiating Spravato® treatment, a thorough mental health assessment is essential. Preparing for your Spravato session includes having your last meal at least 2 hours before the treatment, wearing comfortable clothes, and preferably refraining from alcohol and other substances in the days leading up to your session.
