Subject (or subject's parent/legal guardian for adolescents) must give written informed consent and privacy authorization prior to participation in the study; adolescents must also provide informed assent. 2. Subject has completed the Treatment Period of Study SEP361-301 or Study SEP361-302. 3. Subject has not taken any medication other than the study drug and protocol-allowed medications for the purpose of controlling schizophrenia symptoms during Study SEP361-301 or SEP361-302. 4. Female subject must have a negative urine pregnancy test at the End of Treatment (EOT) Visit of Study SEP361-301 or Study SEP361-302. 5. Female subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use highly effective and reliable contraception throughout the study and for at least 30 days after the last dose of study drug has been taken. 6. Male subjects must agree to avoid fathering a child and use highly effective methods of birth control from screening in Study SEP361-301 or Study SEP361-302, until at least 30 days after the last study drug administration in the present study (SEP361-303). Exclusion Criteria 1. . Subject answered "yes" to "suicidal ideation" Item 4 (active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan) or Item 5 (active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent) on the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) assessment at the End of treatment (EO) Visit of Study SEP361-301 or SEP361-302. 2. Subject has a clinically significant abnormality including physical examination, vital signs, ECG, or laboratory test at the EOT Visit of Study SEP361-301 or SEP361-302 that the investigator in consultation with the medical monitor considers to be inappropriate to allow participation in the study. 3. Subject has a positive urine drug screen (UDS) at the EOT Visit of Study SEP361-301 or SEP361-302. However, a positive UDS test may not result in exclusion of subjects if the Investigator determines that the positive test is as a result of prescription medicine(s). Subjects may enter this study before the urine drug screen results are received from the central laboratory. However, after receipt and review of the results any subject meeting this exclusion criterion must be discontinued from the study. Retesting of the UDS is allowed once with prior approval from the Medical Monitor with the retest used to determine eligibility 4. Female subject is pregnant or lactating.
