Esketamine is a drug that comes from the anesthetic ketamine, which has been used to treat depression for a long time. Esketamine is a stronger form of ketamine and was approved by the FDA in March 2019. Esketamine treatments come in the form of a nasal spray called Spravato.
This spray is used with other medicines to treat depression that is hard to treat (called treatment-resistant depression). Spravato is a controlled substance, so it must be administered by a licensed healthcare professional in a certified medical setting. Most patients receive the treatment in a clinic and go home same day.
Esketamine works differently than antidepressants. It helps to raise the levels of certain chemicals, like dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin, that occur naturally in the brain. It also increases the levels of glutamate, which is the most common chemical messenger in the brain.
This means that esketamine can have a bigger effect on brain cells with just one dose compared to antidepressants. Most patients show improvement with Esketamine (Spravato) after eight treatments. Patients who receive Esketamine versus conventional medication are more likely to experience a full remission in 6 months.
