The diabetes outpatient clinics in Upper Austria are full: in the past three years they have registered a 38 percent increase in the number of patients. Due to increasing demand, there are always supply problems with insulin preparations. There are real flaws in diabetes medications that have become fashionable as weight loss injections.
“I have diabetes and have been using insulin for ten years. Now for the first time I can no longer get my medication.” It was a shock for Günther Waldmann (77) from Ohlsdorf; he now has to switch to a replacement product that pharmacist Susanne Sokoll-Seebacher from Pinsdorf was just able to find for her customer. “The supply problems for insulin preparations are wave-like. We don’t know when they will be available again. This uncertainty is also a great burden for us,” says Sokoll-Seebacher. And she is not an isolated case.
