What Is Spravato?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Spravato is an esketamine nasal spray<\/strong> that is FDA approved<\/strong> espec\u00edficamente para depresi\u00f3n resistente al tratamiento<\/strong> and for depressive symptoms with suicidal ideation. Because it is FDA approved, it is administered in a certified clinic under monitoring, and crucially, it is often covered by insurance. Learn more on our Spravato treatment page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is IV Ketamine?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

IV ketamine is delivered as an intravenous infusion. While ketamine itself is FDA approved as an anesthetic, its use for depression is considered off-label, which means it is typically not covered by insurance and is paid out of pocket. Its advantage is flexibility: dosing can be adjusted, and it may be used for a broader range of conditions. Explore our IV ketamine therapy page<\/a> for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
