• During the course of the study, from study screen until study exit - including the washout period, all men used a spermicide containing barrier method of contraception.

You may not qualify if:

• Institutionalized subjects were not used.
• Social Habits: a. Use of any tobacco-containing products within one (1) year prior to dosing. b. Ingestion of any alcoholic, caffeine- or xanthine-containing food or beverage within the 48 hours prior to the initial dose of study medication. c.

• Medications: a. Use of any prescription or over-the-counter (OTC) medication within the 14 days prior to the initial dose of study medication. b. Use of any hormonal contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy within 3 months prior to study medication dosing. c. Use of any medication within 28 days prior to initial dose of study medication unless the Pharmacokinetics/Drug Metabolism Department at Mylan was consulted and a decision was made to allow the subjects to enroll based on the medications pharmacology and pharmacokinetics. d. Use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), pimozide, or thioridazine within 30 days prior to the initial dosing of study medication.
• Diseases: a. History of any significant cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, pulmonary, hematologic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, dermatologic, or neurologic disease. b. Acute illness at the time of either the pre-study medical evaluation or dosing. c. A positive HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C test.
• Abnormal and clinically significant laboratory test results: a. Clinically significant deviation from the Guide to Clinically Relevant Abnormalities. b. Abnormal and clinically relevant ECG tracing.
• Donation or loss of a significant volume of blood or plasma (\> 450 mL) within 28 days prior to the initial dose of study medication.
• Subjects who received an investigational drug within 30 days prior to the initial dose of study medication.
• Allergy or hypersensitivity to paroxetine or other related products.
• History of difficulties swallowing, or any gastrointestinal disease which could affect the drug absorption.
