Valdoxan (Agomelatine)

Valdoxan is used to treat depression in adults.  Symptoms of depression often include deep sadness or worthlessness, trouble sleeping, feelings of worthlessness, anxiety, or changes in weight.  Symptoms differ from one person to another but the disturbance of mood will interfere with the life of the patient and should be treated appropriately.

Valdoxan is used to reduce and remove the symptoms of depression gradually.  Treatment is usually for a minimum of six months to ensure the best results.

Dosage usually starts at 25mg at bedtime and may be increased to the best effective dose.
