Indications
SPRAVATO® is for use alone or in combination with an oral antidepressant for:
Adults with treatment-resistant depression (MDD patients who have had an inadequate response to 2 or more oral ADs)
How SPRAVATO® Works
SPRAVATO® is different because it targets glutamate, the most abundant excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain
The primary antidepressant activity of SPRAVATO® is not believed to directly involve inhibition of serotonin or norepinephrine reuptake.
The precise mechanism of action (MOA) is unknown.1,3-6
SPRAVATO® is an NMDA receptor antagonist. An NMDA receptor is an ionotropic glutamate receptor.1
NMDA=N-methyl-D-aspartate.
Spravato® (esketamine) is an FDA-approved nasal spray used to treat adults with treatment-resistant depression or major depressive disorder with suicidal thoughts or actions. Unlike traditional antidepressants, Spravato® works differently in the brain and may provide relief more quickly for some individuals.
