Common questions

How do I access esketamine (Spravato) treatment here?

Access runs through a psychiatrist. Your treating psychiatrist assesses whether you meet the Swiss criteria for treatment-resistant depression and refers you; before treatment a detailed consultation takes place and your consent is obtained.

Is the treatment covered by health insurance?

Spravato is reimbursed by Swiss mandatory health insurance for treatment-resistant depression within the official criteria; the insurer's cost approval (Kostengutsprache) must be in place before the first dose.

What does a treatment session involve?

The Clienia group describes a preparation phase, self-administration of the nasal spray under a physician's guidance, around 90 minutes of monitoring on site and a concluding consultation - about two and a half hours in total, mostly on an outpatient basis.
