Hello,
Yes, it can be but Clinicians can achieve greater efficacy with agomelatine in reducing depression and anxiety symptoms in patients suffering from depression, including those with marked anxiety symptoms because it is the first antidepressant with a non-monoaminergic component.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
