Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage Change in Pain Score Based on the Mean of the Last 7 Daily Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Scores From the Daily Pain Diaries

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 6

    Pain NRS score is based on an 11-point scale where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst possible pain.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ)

    Time frame: Day 43 (End of study treatment)

    FIQ score is based on the total score from 0 to 100 gained from 10 questions, where a lower total score represents less impact from fibromyalgia.

  2. Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC)

    Time frame: Day 43 (End of study treatment)

    PGIC score is based on a 7-category scale where a score of 1 indicates the participant's condition is very much improved, and a score of 7 indicates the participant's condition is very much worse.
