What is Spravato®?

Esketamine, administered the right way.

Developed by Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Spravato® is a form of ketamine delivered as a nasal spray and used in conjunction with an oral antidepressant. Because of its potency, the FDA created stringent requirements for clinics that administer it.

In keeping with our commitment to bring our community every treatment option, Novus earned that certification — so Spravato® is given here, in-office, under close monitoring by our clinical team. That's not red tape; it's what makes this treatment safe.

It's a joy to see the difference this medication makes for patients who have struggled for years with chronic depressive symptoms.

Who can benefit?

Built for the patients other treatments left behind.

Treatment-resistant depression

When conventional antidepressants have proven ineffective, Spravato® offers rapid relief — particularly for severe depressive symptoms.

Suicidal thinking

For individuals with depressive symptoms accompanied by suicidal thoughts, esketamine's speed matters: potential relief within hours or days, not weeks.

Comorbid anxiety & PTSD

Where anxiety or PTSD compounds depression, Spravato® can be especially valuable — it can address both depressive and anxiety symptoms.

What to expect

A treatment visit, step by step.

Plan for two hours

Each Spravato® visit is about two hours in our office, so we can monitor you closely after administration.

Twice weekly at first

The initial phase runs twice a week, then frequency decreases as you enter the maintenance phase.

Part of a complete plan

Spravato® works alongside your oral antidepressant and any other treatment, with your provider regularly assessing progress and adjusting.

Duration tailored to you

How long you continue depends on your individual response — decided together, visit by visit.

What does Spravato® cost?

Because Spravato® is FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression, it's covered by most major health plans. You're responsible for your copay, coinsurance, or deductible at the time of each visit.

With the manufacturer's cost-savings program, the cost is often only around $10 per treatment.
