Esketamine is the S-enantiomer of ketamine, a non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist. It is used as an anesthetic agent and, more recently, as an antidepressant for treatment-resistant depression. Esketamine nasal spray is approved for use in adults with treatment-resistant depression in combination with another oral antidepressant.
Pharmacokinetics
Intranasal administration in adults with treatment-resistant depression.
