Detailed Description
Eligible subjects will receive open-label AXS-05 during the 10-week open-label treatment period, during which they will be monitored for response and remission. Subjects meeting the response and remission criteria during the open-label period will be randomized (1:1) to the double-blind period to continue treatment with AXS-05 or switch to treatment with bupropion (105 mg) tablets. Randomized subjects will receive double-blind treatment for 26 weeks or until they experience a relapse.
