>Hello, what is the status of prozac these days?

Generic fluoxetine is very widely used in the UK. It's similar in efficacy and tolerability to the other SSRIs - with a few minor differences (allegedly).

>Why I do not hear/read more about people using this drug?

........because the newer SSRIs have been VERY effectively marketed. There's nothing specifically wrong with fluoxetine.

>Is it worth to try when Zoloft and Effexor failed?

Since Effexor and Zoloft have failed, I'd recommend trying a completely different type of antidepressant next eg. desipramine.
