    Inclusion Criteria:

    * Documented clinical diagnosis meeting criteria from the DSM-IV by structured clinical interview,major depressive disorder, single episode or recurrent
    * Outpatient status at screening and at randomisation

    Exclusion Criteria:

    * A major depression disorder which has a major impact on the subjects current psychiatric status
