Agomelatine is an agonist at both melatonin MT1 receptors (attenuating alerting signals to the cortex) and MT2 receptors (producing a phase-shifting action on the circadian rhythm of sleep). Agomelatine significantly improves sleep quality when taken at night to mimic the natural rhythm of melatonin release.
