I wouldn't go so far as to call it anti-anhedonic, but I've noticed some anti-apathetic effects myself, especially at the start, with a dose of only 25 mg. I found it gave me more of a choice over whether to be active or rest.

I notice less with 50 mg, which I've been on for months now.

I think these effects may be related to the fact that it is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist. See the studies of famotidine in schizophrenia.
