Shortages don't seem like they should a valid reason. Choosing to no longer produce a needed drug shouldn't even be a legal option - free market shouldn't be allowed to trump health. I don't know how you write laws to require a corporation to produce a drug they own, and perhaps that isn't the right approach; but it doesn't seem morally acceptable to let this happen. Capitalism should be taking a back seat here compared to the common good. "Manufacturing problems" just seems ripe for abuse. "Oh, we fired 90% of our production line, and now we just can't seem to pump it out anymore". Manufacture should have safeties and redundancies in place to prevent the sudden inability to produce whatsoever. It's unfortunate that money trumps all, even for the health industry.
