I also have depression, ADD and OCD and am currently taking Wellbutrin and Concerta. I have found a slight decrease in my OCD symptoms on these drugs, but it is nowhere near the improvment I had with Prozac.
I think that with the Wellbutrin and Concerta keeping the depression and the ADD somewhat under control, I am somehow more able to deal with the OCD symptoms on my own (does this make sense?).
