Etymology
The word Prozac is a brand name for the antidepressant fluoxetine, and it was made up by the drug company as a trademark rather than coming from an old language. A helpful way to remember it is to think of pro- as 'for' and link the name to fluoxetine, so Prozac stands for the specific medicine used to treat depression.
