Several articles say that Prozac's patent expires in 2 stages in 2001 and 2003. The following is an excerpt from a recent Reuters article:

For some time, Wall Street has fretted about Lilly's future after
Prozac. The drug's patent, which prohibits others from manufacturing
it, expires in two stages in 2001 and 2003.

That timetable may change, analysts said, depending on the outcome
of a patent lawsuit scheduled to come to trial in late January in
Indianapolis. Generic drug maker Barr Laboratories Inc. of Pomona,
N.Y., is challenging Prozac's patents.
