SPRAVATO® nasal spray is a different kind of medication taken with an oral antidepressant for adults with treatment-resistant depression – a first in decades approved by the FDA. SPRAVATO® works differently than other medications to target treatment-resistant depression.

If you’ve struggled with depression and tried two or more antidepressants* in your current episode without adequate relief, talk to us to see if you have treatment-resistant depression.

SPRAVATO® is a prescription medicine, used along with an antidepressant taken by mouth, for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) in adults.

SPRAVATO® cannot be purchased at a pharmacy. To support the safe and appropriate use of SPRAVATO™, it is given at certified SPRAVATO™ treatment centers. This could be a different location than your regular doctor’s office. We are a certified SPRAVATO™ treatment center.
