History of Changes
  Purpose

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate change in weight as a result of switching from quetiapine to ziprasidone, in subjects with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder who have failed to achieve a satisfactory clinical response to quetiapine due to lack of efficacy or poor tolerability.
