What is Spravato?
Spravato is a prescription nasal spray. Doctors also call it esketamine. It is a breakthrough treatment for adults who have tried at least two other antidepressant pills without success. Unlike traditional medicines that can take weeks to work, Spravato works differently in the brain to help target depressive symptoms.
Your Treatment Experience in Laurel
Your safety and comfort are our top priorities. Because Spravato is a powerful medication, you must take it under the supervision of a healthcare provider. You cannot take this medicine at home.
When you visit our clinic in Laurel, MD, you will use the nasal spray yourself while a member of our team watches. After you take the dose, you will stay in our office for at least two hours. This allows us to monitor you for any side effects, like sleepiness or a temporary increase in blood pressure. Many of our patients use this time to rest, listen to music, or relax in a quiet environment.

We are proud to serve the local Laurel community. We also understand that travel can be difficult. That is why MindBodyPinnacle Health offers telehealth services for patients in:

Safety and Requirements
Spravato is part of a restricted safety program called REMS. This program ensures that the medication is given safely in a certified medical setting.
