What is Spravato?

Spravato is a nasal spray formulation of ketamine, a medication originally used as an anesthetic. In recent years, research has highlighted its effectiveness in treating severe depression, especially when traditional antidepressants and therapies have not yielded satisfactory results. Unlike conventional antidepressants, which typically take weeks to show effects, Spravato has been shown to produce rapid improvements in mood.

How Does Spravato Work?

Spravato works by targeting different pathways in the brain compared to traditional antidepressants. It is an NMDA receptor antagonist that is believed to work differently by acting on a pathway in the brain that affects glutamate. Spravato helps to quickly restore a sense of emotional balance and well-being.
