- The investigator and the subject, or caregiver, if applicable, should consider it beneficial for the subject to receive continued retigabine IR therapy.
- Has met any of the withdrawal criteria in the previous RGB113905 study or has clinically significant abnormal clinical laboratory or ECG findings not resolved prior to entry to the open-label extension study.
- Is suffering from acute or progressive neurological disease, severe psychiatric disease, or severe mental abnormalities that are likely to interfere with the study objectives.
