UPDATE: SIMILAC Recall 2010
Courtesy Xochitl Mora,
Laredo, TX—The City of Laredo Health Department is issuing an update on the Similac Powder Formula recall and wants the public to know that specific lot numbers affected are available now, many of them contain “RB” in the lot number. To be sure persons should link to the Abbot Similac website (www.similac.com/recall) and follow the instructions for the specific lot number. Persons can also call 1-800-986-8850 and although it may take some time someone will answer.
We have also been advised that lot numbers with “RE” are not affected. For the public’s convenience we are also putting the list through a link on the health department’s website http://www.cityoflaredo.com/health/health.htm
As stated No Abbott liquid formulas are impacted, such as the Abbott Nutrition liquid ready to feed and concentrated infant formulas and all specialty formulas (Similac Expert Care, Alimentum, Elecare, Similac Expert Care Neosure, Similac Human Milk Fortifier and metabolic formulas for inherited disorders).
