To be annoyed at the lack of treatment for diabetes as everyone is snapping it up for weight loss?

Just as the title says really. Myself and other diabetics are having our meds chopped and changed because the pharmacy can't get hold of them. It would seem that they can't get hold of them as people are buying them for weight loss!
Why is everything all about an easy fix with weight loss? If you're taking "weight loss drugs" and not changing your diet and life style then surely once you stop taking them you will put the weight back on?

Diabetologist know so well about some patients putting their lives at risk, especially young women, by not taking their insulin or a lower than required dose, as they put on weight and can't lose it, if they do. Insulinorexia.

Well it's only actually given to type 2 diabetics.....
