• Subject has at least moderate pain that is defined as an average pain intensity of ≥5 on an 11-point Likert pain scale (0-10) during the 7 days prior to Baseline
• Subject must have at least 5 morning and 5 evening Likert pain scale scores for the 7 days immediately prior to Visit 2 and the average daily pain score over these 7 days must be ≥5 (average daily pain score is determined as follows: calculate the mean of the morning and evening scores separately using all pain scores for the 7 days immediately prior to Visit 2; add the mean morning and evening scores and divide by 2)
• Subject has a score of ≥50 on Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), with a score of 100 representing severe disease at Baseline

You may not qualify if…

• Subject has symptomatic regional or structural rheumatic disease (eg, knee or hip osteoarthritis, bursitis, tendonitis), rheumatic autoimmune disease or inflammatory rheumatic disease, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), mild primary osteoarthritis of the hand(s) is allowed
• Subject has diagnosed neuropathic pain syndrome
• Subject has received therapy with a dopamine agonist (eg, pramipexole, ropinirole) for 3 months or longer that was not considered effective in managing fibromyalgia symptoms
• Subject is receiving disability or is involved in litigation related to fibromyalgia syndrome
• Subject has significant psychopathology as determined by the investigator based on results of the Structural Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Diagnosis (SCID-I). The SCID-I must be administered by a physician or clinical psychologist trained to administer the instrument

• Subject has any medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, could jeopardize or compromise the subject's ability to participate in this trial
• Subject has orthostatic hypotension with a decrease of blood pressure (BP) from supine to standing position of ≥20 mmHg in systolic blood pressure (SBP) or of ≥10 mmHg in diastolic blood pressure (DBP) taken from the 5-minute supine value and the 1- and/or 3-minute standing measurements, or supine SBP <105 mmHg at Baseline
