Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod

Assessment of events of dizziness, blurred vision, somnolence, aggression, balance disorders, ataxia, falls, unintended pregnancy, weight gain, suicidality, drug abuse, misuse, dependence, withdrawal, off-label use, skin photosensitivity, unintended pregnancy while taking levonorgestrel-containing contraceptives, and outcomes associated with any suspected drug-drug interaction.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Incidence of unintended pregnancyUp to 52 weeks
Summary scores for the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)Screening, Week 52
Number of TEAEs in the patient subpopulations of interestUp to 52 weeks and 2 weeks of follow-up

TEAEs observed in the specified subpopulations of patients could also be made in order to get a better understanding of whether any of these particular potential risk factors (e.g., old age, cardiovascular disease) define groups with greater or lesser risk.

Clinical Global Impression of ChangeWeek 52

Assessment of disease severity will utilize the Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) scale at end of treatment to evaluate change in disease status since initiation of treatment.

Incidence of off-label useUp to 52 weeks
