Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Prior to assignment to the 12-week treatment phase, all participants received placebo in a single-blind manner in a 4-week run-in phase. Participants completing the run-in phase were then randomized to receive either placebo or paroxetine for the remainder of the study.

Reporting Groups
  Description
Placebo Placebo once daily (OD)
Paroxetine 20-50 mg/Day Paroxetine 20 milligrams (mg)/day once daily (OD) for 2 weeks; titration up to 50 mg/day OD if necessary to achieve sufficient response. The last dose level in the treatment phase was reduced stepwise by one step every week to the final dose level of paroxetine 20 mg/day as part of a taper phase.
