  • Male and female outpatients at least 18 years of age, presenting with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) based on the disease diagnostic criteria. Must suffer from GAD and not from an adjustment disorder or anxiety disorder not otherwise specified. The symptoms of GAD should not be situational in nature.

You may not qualify if:

  • Any current and primary DSM-IV Axis I diagnosis other than GAD, including:
  • Patients diagnosed with major depressive disorder within the past 6 months; or
