Find a Treatment Center
You can only get SPRAVATO® at certified SPRAVATO® treatment centers; ask your healthcare provider to help find a location.
Because of the risks for sedation or loss of consciousness, dissociation, respiratory depression, and abuse and misuse, SPRAVATO® can only be administered at healthcare settings certified in the
SPRAVATO® Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) Program.
The SPRAVATO® Treatment Experience
To help ensure patient safety, SPRAVATO® is administered under the supervision of a healthcare provider at a treatment center that is certified in the SPRAVATO® Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) Program. This could be at a different location than your usual doctor’s office.
Here’s how it’s done:
1. Ask
Ask your healthcare provider if SPRAVATO® is right for you
2. Locate
Work with your healthcare provider to locate a treatment center near you — with our “Find a Center” tool
3. Build
Once you find a treatment center, you will build a treatment plan with the team at the treatment center
4. Enroll
The treatment center team will enroll you in the SPRAVATO® Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) Program.**REMS is required by the FDA to manage known or potential risks associated with a drug and to ensure the benefits of the drug outweigh its risk. Click here to learn more.
5. Report
After each session, make sure you report back to your healthcare provider so that you can discuss your progress
After you administer SPRAVATO®, there will be an observation period of at least two hours, during which you will rest comfortably while a healthcare provider at the treatment center monitors you for possible side effects.
Because of possible side effects affecting mental alertness and motor coordination, you won’t be able to drive, operate machinery or do anything where you need to be completely alert until the next day. You’ll need to plan for rides on treatment days.
If you change the location of your certified SPRAVATO® treatment center during your treatment, your healthcare provider should contact the new treatment center to ensure it is able to accept you as a patient, and that it takes your insurance.
