> I was reading some French website about Stablon where a French doctor was giving his opinion of it. He was saying that it isn't well-studied and only a minority of patients benefit from it, and because there are many other "proven" antidepressants already on the market, he doesn't prescribe Stablon.

Yes exactly. I live in Austria and doctors say the same here. They did not have much success with Stablon, and they rarely use it anymore. Also the insurance "caontrolles" the drug, because for most patients its a waste of time and for the insurance a waste of money. But if you tried nearly everything else, they grant permission to get it.
And its the same here like anywhere else. Effexor is quite the most prescribed AD here....bye
