Common questions

Where exactly is the esketamine program run, in Sieradz or in Warta?

At the Psychiatric Center in Warta (ul. Sieradzka 3, Warta), which is an organizational part of the Provincial Hospital in Sieradz. Observation-Diagnostic Ward 3 lists intranasal esketamine under program B.147 among its treatment options.

What do I need to qualify for program B.147 here?

You must be 18-75 with a current moderate-to-severe depressive episode that has not responded to at least two antidepressants used adequately. Qualification is done by the center's psychiatrists; bring your referral and prior treatment documentation. Treatment under the program is fully NFZ-funded for up to 34 weeks.

What if esketamine is not suitable for me?

This ward is unusual in offering several options for treatment-resistant depression at one site: IV racemic ketamine infusions, electroconvulsive therapy and lithium augmentation, so the team can propose an alternative pathway after assessment.
