SPRAVATO® is derived from ketamine, a drug that has been used in hospitals as an anesthetic since the 1970s. This esketamine nasal spray helps in alleviating symptoms of depression is a more recent discovery. SPRAVATO® esketamine treatment for depression is unique in that it is self-administered in our office under the supervision of a trained healthcare professional. After administering SPRAVATO® you will remain in one of our comfortable Wellness Suites for two hours as mandated by the FDA. Our trained Sozo caregivers will ensure you are safe and help alleviate any adverse side effects.
Our healthcare professionals are experts at evaluating your specific needs and the medications you have tried in the past. During your initial evaluation, we will review your medical history and together map out a treatment plan that is best for you that may include SPRAVATO®.
SPRAVATO® treatments can last over several months. Together we will work to create a SPRAVATO® treatment plan. Typically, SPRAVATO® esketamine treatment is broken into two phases; the Induction Phase, or beginning; and the Maintenance Phase, or ongoing treatments. The Induction Phase lasts one month and SPRAVATO® esketamine nasal spray is administered twice a week in our office. The Maintenance Phase may last as long as you and your healthcare professional deem it helpful.
Every insurance company is different. Our goal is to take the burden of dealing with your insurance company off of your shoulders and onto ours. After you provide us with your insurance information, we obtain preauthorization, manage your deductibles and co-pays and follow up with your insurance company to obtain payment. At Sozo, we want you to focus on your most important task: getting better and overcoming therapy resistant depression.
