Answer:

Lantus is a long-acting insulin used to treat adults with type 2 diabetes and adults and pediatric patients (children 6 years and older) with type 1 diabetes for the control of high blood sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

It causes body tissues to absorb glucose from the blood and reduces the rate at which the liver produces glucose. However, it is not advisable to continue administering doses when there is low blood sugar or when the patient is pregnant.
