Age To  55.00 Year(s)
Gender  Both 
Details  1. Patient has a documented clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia (DSM IV-TR) on a stable dose of quetiapine 300 mg twice a day for at least 14 days prior to screening
2. Females and/or males patients aged 18 to 55 years (both inclusive)
3. Patients having a Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18 kg/m2 and 35 kg/m2 (both inclusive)
4. Patient and/or his/ her Legally Acceptable Representative are willing to give written informed consent for participation in the trial
5. Not having any significant diseases or clinically significant abnormal findings except schizophrenia during screening, medical history, physical examination, laboratory evaluations, 12-lead ECG and X-ray chest (PA view if required) recordings.
6. The investigator must ensure that the respective hepatic, renal, haematopoietic, cardiac and respiratory functions are appropriate to include the patient in the study.
7. Women of child-bearing potential and all men must agree to use a medically accepted method of contraception from screening, while receiving protocol-specified medication till end of study. Acceptable methods of contraception include condoms (male or female) with or without a spermicidal agent, diaphragm or cervical cap with spermicide, medically prescribed intrauterine device (IUD), oral or injectable hormonal contraceptive, and surgical sterilization (e.g., hysterectomy or tubal ligation).

8. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test (beta-HCG) at Screening 
 
ExclusionCriteria 
Details  1. Known hypersensitivity or idiosyncratic reaction to quetiapine or lack of response to quetiapine fumarate as judged by the investigator 2. Current or relevant history of serious, severe or unstable psychiatric illness, meeting the criteria for any other (DSM-IV Axis I) except schizophrenia. 3. History of syncope or orthostatic hypotension or presence of postural hypotension (Defined as systolic blood pressure decrease of at least 20 mm Hg or a diastolic blood pressure decrease of at least 10 mm Hg within three minutes of standing up) 4. Any condition/ Abnormal baseline findings that in the investigators? judgment might increase the risk to the patient or decrease the chance of obtaining satisfactory data needed to obtain the objective of the study e.g. Abnormality in vital signs (systolic blood pressure <90 or >140mmHg or diastolic blood pressure <50 or >90 mmHg or heart rate <50 beats/min or >100 beats/min at screening, randomisation and at pre-dose vital signs). 5. Ingestion of any medication other than listed below at any time in 10 days before the first study drug administration. In any such case Patient selection will be at the discretion of the Principal Investigator.
