Brief Answer:
Adjust insulin and add OHA.

Hi!
Now as per the reports, her HbA1c is poorly controlled. so the choice would be to increase Lantus at bed time.
Rest continue same plan. Also add a Tab Istamet twice a day, before breakfast and before dinner.
Recheck her sugars after 2 days and let me know.
