The article says

“It was a porcelain antique Prozac pill from the ‘50s that was one of Carrie’s prized possessions,” Todd, Fisher’s brother, told The Hollywood Reporter.

I don't understand this, since Prozac didn't come out til the late '80s.

Same, it doesn’t make a ton of sense unless they painted it to look like Prozac more recently.

I think he didn't know when she bought it exactly or how old it was, another quote to a different rag:

“Carrie’s favorite possession was a giant Prozac pill that she bought many years ago. A big pill. She loved it, and it was in her house, and Billie [Fisher’s daughter] and I felt it was where she’d want to be.”
