Well, I find this.[0]
> Drug maker Johnson & Johnson has stated that the Average Wholesale Price (AWP) for each treatment of esketamine would range from $590 to $885, depending on dosage and excluding administration and observation costs. This implies a twice-weekly treatment during the first month would cost medical treatment centers offering the drug at least $4,720 to $6,785. Subsequent weekly treatments would cost about half as much.
Purchasers and payers with market power will get discounts and/or rebates, of course. But that's still a damn expensive drug. Also, do note that it's the "cost [to] medical treatment centers". Not what they'd charge patients and third-party payers.
