The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of paliperidone extended-release (ER; designed to slowly release a drug in the body over an extended period of time) tablets in participants with schizophrenia (psychiatric disorder with symptoms of emotional instability, detachment from reality, often with delusions \[a false belief held in the face of strong differing evidence, especially as a symptom of psychiatric disorder\] and hallucinations \[imagining things\], and withdrawal into the self) who were not satisfied with other prior antipsychotics (agents that control agitated psychotic behavior, alleviate acute psychotic states, reduce psychotic symptoms, and exert a quieting effect; olanzapine, quetiapine and risperidone) they had been taking. The safety and tolerability of paliperidone ER tablets will also be assessed.
