Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - PP6M
Treatment: Drugs - PP3M 350 mg eq.
Treatment: Drugs - PP3M 525 mg eq.
Treatment: Drugs - PP1M
Other interventions - Placebo

Experimental: PP1M: Transition Phase - Participants who previously have not achieved stability with moderate to higher doses of Paliperidone palmitate 1-month (PP1M) or Paliperidone palmitate 3-month (PP3M) will enter into a transition period of up to 4 months. During transition period participants will receive 1 to 5 injections of PP1M 50 to 100 milligrams equivalent (mg eq.). The participants who achieved stability (stability is defined as at least 3 months of injections with the last 2 doses being the same strength) with PP1M 100 mg eq. will precede from transition phase to maintenance phase.

Experimental: PP1M/PP3M: Maintenance Phase - All the participants will receive only 1 dose of PP1M 100 or 150 mg eq. or PP3M 350 or 525 mg eq. The participants will precede from maintenance phase to double-blind phase.

Experimental: PP6M or Placebo: Double-Blind Phase - Participants will receive intramuscular injection of PP6M in left gluteal muscle on Day 1 and right gluteal muscle on Day 183 with alternating placebo in right gluteal muscle on Day 92 and left gluteal muscle on Day 274.

Experimental: PP3M: Double-Blind Phase - Participants will receive intramuscular injections of PP3M at dose of 350 mg eq. or 525 mg eq. in left gluteal muscle on Day 1 and 274 and right gluteal muscle on Day 92 and 183.
