What Is Spravato (Esketamine)?
Spravato is an FDA-approved nasal spray that contains esketamine, a derivative of ketamine. It is used alongside an oral antidepressant and is specifically designed for adults with treatment-resistant depression. Unlike traditional antidepressants that can take weeks to show results, this option works rapidly, often providing relief from depressive symptoms within hours to days. These benefits make it a vital option for those who need fast, effective intervention.
Who Qualifies for Spravato?
Spravato is intended for adults who have tried traditional antidepressants, but have not seen successful results. Oftentimes, these patients are considered treatment-resistant, and may be good candidates for alternative treatments such as Spravato. It is administered under the supervision of a healthcare provider at our clinic, and each session is carefully monitored to ensure safety and effectiveness.
You might qualify if you:
- Have been diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD).
- Have not responded well to at least two different antidepressants.
- Are seeking a fast-acting treatment option that can be administered in a controlled, supervised environment.
If you are unsure whether Spravato is right for you, our experienced team at Xpress Urgent Care can help determine your eligibility through a comprehensive evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Spravato targets the NMDA receptor in the brain, which plays a role in mood regulation and cognitive function. By affecting this receptor, Spravato can rapidly reduce symptoms of depression.
Spravato is administered as a nasal spray at our clinic. You will be monitored by our medical staff for two hours after each session to ensure your safety. Most patients receive treatments twice a week for the first month, with the frequency gradually decreasing over time.
Common side effects of Spravato include dizziness, dissociation, nausea, and increased blood pressure. Because of these potential side effects, it’s essential that Spravato is administered in a medical setting where patients can be monitored closely.
Many patients experience a reduction in depressive symptoms on the same day or within days of their first Spravato treatment. However, it is important to continue with the full course of treatment, as recommended by your healthcare provider.
