According to RxList, fluoxetine was the 28th most dispensed prescription drug in the U.S. last year. Considering antidepressants only, just Zoloft and Lexapro were dispensed more often. With 21,752,487 prescriptions dispensed last year in the U.S., fluoxetine is still a a very widely prescribed drug. I imagine that fluoxetine will remain a top five antidepressant in terms of prescriptions dispensed for the rest of the decade at least.
