You deserve to find a treatment option that gives you relief from your mental health symptoms. Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) can be particularly challenging to manage, with medications either proving ineffective in the case of Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) or the side effects leaving you feeling worse, rather than better. A great next step in your mental wellness journey is learning who can benefit from SPRAVATO treatment in the Jackson area and whether you can find relief.

SPRAVATO is a form of esketamine that is administered via a nasal spray. You administer the nasal spray in the office yourself, while our team observes. There is a mandatory observation period of at least two hours after you receive your dose. This is because SPRAVATO may leave you feeling dissociative, tired, or inebriated. The observation period allows our team to monitor for any side effects, as well as helping you navigate the thoughts and feelings that SPRAVATO may bring to the surface. We ensure you are in a comfortable, safe space for your observation period, and will work with you to make you feel welcome.
You may be an ideal candidate who can benefit from SPRAVATO treatment if you experience some specific forms of MDD and you experience certain physical and mental symptoms.
TRD is a frustrating diagnosis, as you struggle to find a meaningful treatment that yields relief. If your TRD does not respond to at least two different traditional psychiatric medications, then SPRAVATO may be the solution you seek.
Managing suicidal ideation in conjunction with MDD is extremely important. Our goal at Precise Mind is to help you maximize your well-being, and SPRAVATO can help you manage your MDD symptoms, including reducing the acute suicidal ideation you may experience due to your MDD.
SPRAVATO is approved for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. This FDA approval means it is safe and tested for use in adults, but it has not been assessed as effective for children.
There are several medical conditions you may be experiencing that exclude you from pursuing SPRAVATO treatment. If you have a history of heart conditions, then it is best to avoid SPRAVATO. SPRAVATO can also exacerbate your blood pressure concerns. It is also recommended to avoid SPRAVATO if you are dealing with or have dealt with substance abuse in the past. If these conditions dissipate or change, you may consider SPRAVATO as a future treatment option.
