Discover Relief with Spravato Treatment at Klarisana in Austin, Texas

If you’re one of the many individuals struggling with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) or major depressive disorder (MDD) with suicidal thoughts or actions, finding an effective treatment can feel like a daunting journey. At Klarisana, we are excited to offer Spravato (esketamine), an FDA-approved, groundbreaking option for those who haven’t found relief with traditional antidepressants. Spravato, a nasal spray, provides rapid relief and is covered by many insurance providers, making it a more accessible choice for those in need.

What is Spravato and How Does It Work?

Spravato (esketamine) is a unique, fast-acting medication administered through a nasal spray, specifically designed for individuals whose depression has not improved with other treatments. Unlike traditional antidepressants that may take weeks or months to show effects, Spravato works quickly, with many patients experiencing significant improvement within just a few sessions. This treatment is conducted under the careful supervision of Klarisana’s experienced medical team to ensure safety and optimal outcomes.

Integrating Spravato into Klarisana’s Holistic Care Model

At Klarisana, we believe that true healing involves addressing every aspect of mental health through a holistic approach. Spravato fits seamlessly into our broader care model, which includes preparation, treatment, integration, and long-term support.

1. Preparation and Initial Assessment:
Before beginning Spravato treatment, our Medical Intake Team will conduct a thorough evaluation to ensure you meet the necessary criteria. This initial step is essential to tailor the treatment to your specific needs.

2. During Treatment:
Spravato sessions are held in private, calming treatment rooms at our Austin clinic. Our compassionate Clinical Team will be with you every step of the way, monitoring your comfort and safety. Each session lasts about two hours, during which your vital signs, including blood pressure, will be closely observed. Due to the nature of the treatment, you’ll need to arrange for someone to drive you home afterward.

3. Integration and Post-Treatment Support:
Following your Spravato sessions, our team offers post-treatment support, including integration sessions and talk therapy. These services are designed to help you process your experiences, set new goals, and continue your mental wellness journey with clarity and purpose.

4. Time Commitment and Long-Term Maintenance:
For TRD, Spravato is initially administered twice a week for four weeks. After this period, the frequency decreases to once a week through weeks 5-8, and then to once weekly or bi-weekly based on your clinician’s guidance. For MDD with suicidal thoughts or actions, the initial schedule is similar, and the need for ongoing treatment is assessed after the first four weeks.

Safety and Long-Term Efficacy of Spravato

Spravato’s safety profile has been rigorously tested, with long-term studies showing consistent results over time. The SUSTAIN-3 trial monitored patients for up to six years, confirming the safety and tolerability of Spravato. Additionally, data from an extended safety study demonstrated that patients’ depression symptoms remained stable over the course of 5.1 years, highlighting Spravato’s potential for long-term use in managing depression.
