SNBCare

If you’ve been searching for Spravato near me, SNBCare offers a safe and professionally supervised treatment option for adults diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Spravato® (esketamine) nasal spray is an FDA-approved medication that provides an alternative for adults who have not found relief through traditional antidepressants. At SNBCare, this treatment is available in our Massachusetts and Rhode Island offices, ensuring patients have convenient access to care close to home.

Understanding Spravato (Esketamine)

Spravato represents a major development in the management of depression. Unlike oral antidepressants that primarily affect serotonin or norepinephrine, Spravato targets the glutamate system, helping restore communication between brain cells involved in mood regulation. This mechanism offers a potential pathway for improvement in individuals whose symptoms have not responded adequately to conventional antidepressants.

Because Spravato contains Esketamine, a-controlled medication, it is administered only in certified medical settings under the REMS (Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy) program. SNBCare is certified to provide Spravato treatment, and all sessions are conducted under the supervision of licensed clinicians in a calm, structured environment.

Who May Benefit from Spravato

Spravato is designed specifically for adults diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression, meaning they have not achieved adequate improvement after trying at least two oral antidepressants. It is not a first-line treatment and must be prescribed following a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation.

At SNBCare, this evaluation includes:

  • A detailed review of medical and psychiatric history
  • Assessment of previous medication trials and treatment responses
  • Consideration of physical health and medication safety
  • Discussion of goals and expectations for treatment

Only after this individualized evaluation will a provider determine whether Spravato is clinically appropriate.

What Happens During a Spravato Session

Spravato treatment sessions at SNBCare take place in person under professional supervision. The process includes:

  1. Self-administration of the Spravato nasal spray, guided by a trained provider.
  2. Observation and monitoring for approximately two hours in a quiet recovery area.
  3. Post-treatment support, including side effect management and discharge guidance.

Because temporary side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, or mild dissociation can occur, patients are advised not to drive or operate machinery until the following day.

Spravato is typically used alongside an oral antidepressant and follows a structured schedule, initially twice weekly, then tapering to once weekly or every other week as symptoms improve.
