Life Connections Counseling is now offering Spravato Treatment!
Spravato is a groundbreaking and effective treatment for Major Depressive Disorder in people that have tried anti-depressants and have not had relief from the impactful and distressing mental illness. It is also beneficial and can provide quick relief for people with Major Depressive Disorder who are experiencing suicidal thoughts or actions.
What is Spravato?
Spravato is esketamine, a nasal spray approved for the use of Treatment-Resistant Depression. It is used in conjunction with an oral antidepressant or by itself. Unlike Ketamine that is used in a hospital setting for sedation, Esketamine takes the beneficial results from Ketamine and removes the major sedative effects.
How Is Spravato Different from an Oral Antidepressant?
An oral antidepressant can possibly take up to a month or possibly longer to reach a therapeutic level in order to see results. Spravato has been shown to improve symptoms in a matter of a few days or a week.
