My doctor recently brought up these medications as alternatives to the kind that I have been on. I've been on Prozac which is considered a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Zulresso is not a SSRI and works differently. My doctor was considering putting me on Zulresso (Esketamine- generic) which they recently passed for people that are building resistance to SSRIs. Has anyone tried it? I hear its very expensive to start. Would like to hear what your process was and if its working.

Hi @OnlyAmy

How are you doing today?

Let me tag a few other Carenity members who may have experience with Zulresso.

@ricksarnold @Teagan @makgibson117 @ayoubalharchal @wallies1- @Terimull @hundal @Echointhestars @mgracewalk @venusfine @Lollo4 @Billionsam @AnnLee @Syd789 @leilael @HALBEL @Daphn327 @etheredmoon @ellepillsbury @Charlks @Faith lewis @RuSaved1 @Jlbekfi123 @charding8290 @Tescott1981 @chais18a

Are you on any medication for depression? Do you know if it is a SSRI or is it this new type of drug, Esketamine? What have your experiences been? Any side effects?

Remember, Carenity has a new feature where you can rate your treatment. This offers one central search location for all medications. I encourage everyone to review their medication here: https://member.carenity.us/opinion

Take care,
