While traditional antidepressants target serotonin, Spravato works through a completely different pathway in your brain—often providing relief when other treatments have failed.
"If you've tried multiple antidepressants without success, you're not alone. Treatment-resistant depression affects millions, but breakthrough science offers new hope through Spravato's unique NMDA receptor approach.."
For over 60 years, most antidepressants have worked the same way—by adjusting serotonin levels in your brain. But what if your depression isn't caused by a serotonin imbalance? Recent neuroscience research reveals that treatment-resistant depression often involves disrupted neural connections, not just chemical imbalances. This is where Spravato's breakthrough approach makes all the difference.
Spravato (esketamine) targets NMDA receptors in your brain, helping to restore and strengthen neural pathways that depression has damaged. Unlike traditional antidepressants that can take 6-8 weeks to show effects, patients often experience meaningful improvement within hours to days. This isn't just about managing symptoms—it's about helping your brain rebuild the connections that support lasting mental wellness.
The difference is remarkable: while traditional antidepressants work on the brain's 'chemical messengers,' Spravato actually helps repair the brain's 'communication highways.' This fundamental difference explains why patients who haven't responded to other treatments often find success with Spravato—we're finally addressing the root cause, not just the symptoms.
If you've tried multiple antidepressants without lasting success, the problem isn't you—it's that we've been targeting the wrong pathways. Treatment-resistant depression often involves damaged neural connections that serotonin-based medications simply can't repair.
During your first visit, our medical team conducts a comprehensive evaluation of your depression history, reviews previous treatments, and determines if Spravato is right for you. We also begin the insurance verification process and create your personalized treatment plan.
Your first Spravato session includes detailed explanation of what to expect, comfortable positioning in our monitoring area, administration of the nasal spray, and continuous supervision by our trained staff. Most patients find the experience much easier than anticipated.
Many patients notice initial improvements within hours to days after their first treatment, with more significant relief typically emerging after 2-4 sessions. The full benefits often become apparent within the first 2-4 weeks of your induction phase.
You'll receive treatments twice weekly for the first month, then typically once weekly for another month, followed by maintenance treatments every 1-2 weeks based on your individual response and needs.
Clinical studies show that patients who respond to Spravato maintain their improvement over time with regular maintenance treatments. Many patients report sustained relief from depression symptoms and significantly improved quality of life months and years after starting treatment.

Spravato represents one of the most thoroughly studied depression treatments in recent history. Before receiving FDA approval in 2019, esketamine underwent extensive clinical trials involving over 20,000 patients across multiple years of research. This rigorous evaluation process resulted in Spravato receiving FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation—a special status reserved for treatments that demonstrate substantial improvement over existing options.
As part of our commitment to patient safety, all our Spravato treatments are administered under the FDA's Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) program.
This comprehensive safety framework requires that every treatment center meet strict certification standards, maintain specialized training protocols, and provide continuous monitoring during each session. Patients are observed by trained medical professionals throughout their treatment and recovery period, ensuring the highest level of safety and care.
Our New Jersey treatment centers are fully REMS-certified and exceed all FDA safety requirements. Since Spravato's approval, we've successfully administered almost 20,000 treatments with an outstanding safety record. Every member of our clinical team has completed specialized esketamine training and certification, giving you confidence that you're receiving treatment from qualified professionals who prioritize both your safety and recovery.
This level of oversight and certification means you can focus on your healing journey, knowing that every safety measure has been carefully implemented to protect and support you throughout the treatment process.
"After 15 years of trying different antidepressants that either stopped working or never worked at all, I was losing hope. Within three Spravato treatments, I felt something I hadn't felt in years - actual joy. The staff at PremierMD made me feel safe and supported through every session. It's been six months now, and I finally have my life back."
"I was skeptical about trying another treatment after so many failures. But Dr. Boguslavsky's team explained everything thoroughly, and their experience with over 10,000 treatments gave me confidence. The improvement wasn't gradual like other medications - it was dramatic and within days. My family says they got their husband and father back."
"The difference between traditional antidepressants and Spravato is night and day. Instead of waiting months to see if something might work, I felt hope returning within hours of my first treatment. The two-hour monitoring period actually became something I looked forward to - quiet time to reflect on my progress."
