As SPRAVATO® is a Schedule III controlled substance, your REMS-certified SPRAVATO® treatment center will require appropriate storage of SPRAVATO®.1
Staff protocols will need to be established for handling and disposal as well, in accordance with federal and state regulations and laws.1
THINGS TO CONSIDER:
1. Which space will you designate as your secure storage area?
2. How and when will you educate appropriate staff?
3. What is your timeline for these preparations?
Your REMS-certified SPRAVATO® treatment center will require a space with seating in which patients can self-administer SPRAVATO® under the supervision of a trained healthcare provider. The patient must then be monitored post-administration for a minimum of 2 hours.1
It’s important to note that once a patient starts SPRAVATO®, multiple appointments will be needed as part of the patient's treatment plan.1
THINGS TO CONSIDER:
1. Which location within the treatment center will be used for SPRAVATO® treatment administration, observation, and monitoring?
2. How will you educate existing or new staff to handle patient visits?
3. What is your timeline for these preparations?
4. Does your practice have the capacity to accept referrals, and schedule and accommodate the series and frequency of appointments required for patients requiring treatment with SPRAVATO®?
If yes, let HCPs in your community know you're accepting new SPRAVATO® patients. And ensure your practice's information is up to date at spravatohcp.com/find-a-center
