  • Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP
  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Selegiline
Subjects who meet all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be received Selegiline.The study medication dosage will be escalated from 5mg/daily to the target dose(5~10mg/daily) in 2 weeks and then maintained for the remaining 6 weeks.
Subjects will receive one Selegiline tablet (5 mg) per day administered at breakfast. The initial dose of Selegiline is 5 mg/day and be up-titrated in 2-week intervals in increments of 5 mg up to 10 mg (which can be taken at breakfast or divided doses of 5 mg each taken at breakfast and lunch) according to the investigator's judgment, based on individual clinical response and tolerability.
