A psychiatrist can help you access a variety of treatments for your mental health, including Spravato®. Upswing Psychiatry is Texas’s number one provider of Spravato®, the first prescription nasal spray for Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) or Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) with suicidal ideation or actions. If you are experiencing either of these conditions and have not found relief with traditional therapies, our psychiatrist in Amarillo can help you learn more about Spravato® and support you through your individualized treatment plan.

WHAT IS SPRAVATO®?

Spravato® (esketamine) is an FDA-approved nasal spray that, when taken with an oral antidepressant, serves as an effective treatment for refractory depression and Major Depressive Disorder. The treatment targets glutamate, a neurotransmitter that several studies have found to be abnormally regulated in areas of the brain in people with depression.

Spravato® in Amarillo is not prescribed through a pharmacy. Instead, it must be administered in a professional setting by trained psychiatric providers like our team at Upswing Psychiatry. To find out if Spravato® treatment is right for you, call our clinic to schedule a consultation. Our Amarillo psychiatrists are here to support you from your first appointment onward.

Candidates for Spravato®

Our psychiatrists in Amarillo will help establish whether Spravato® is a good fit for your unique mental health needs. This treatment is often helpful for those who have been diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder or treatment-resistant depression. Spravato® should not be used by Amarillo patients who have experienced aneurysms, malformed blood vessels, and certain types of strokes. Individuals sensitive to esketamine or ketamine should also avoid this treatment.
