5ht2c also greatly improves slow-wave sleep. It should be a great drug for sleep with few side effects.
The one side effect i worry about is weight gain. antagonising 5ht2c is speculated to be part of the reason olanzapine and clozapine cause so much weight gain, mirtazapine make people eat constantly, and cyproheptadine is used to help people gain weight. There are other drugs which don't match this though.
So i'm curious: anyone who has taken agomelatine, how did it affect your weight or appetite?
