Antidepressant medications are used in the treatment of clinical depression, usually alongside other forms of therapy such as psychological or behavioral therapy. Spravato is a medicine used to treat adults with major depression that is resistant to treatment. (Bahr, 2019) It is used in combination with an SSRI or SNRI medicine (other antidepressants) when at least two other treatments have failed. Spravato contains the active substance esketamine.
