Insulin glargine

Rationale: Insulin glargine is a long-acting form of insulin. All of the other answer choices are short-acting or fast-acting forms.

6 days

Rationale: Since 15 mL is equivalent to 0.5 ounces, and every 6 hours means 4 times per day, this means that a total of 0.5 x 4 = 2 ounces of antacid must be taken each day. Therefore, a 12 ounce bottle, divided by 2 ounces per day, will last for 6 days.
