Similac baby formula recalled
Print
The makers of Similac baby formula have recalled powdered products
dating back to 2007, saying that it could contain beetles and their larvae.
Although not a life-threatening situation, babies who eat the formula could experience stomach irritation symptoms and refuse to eat, according to Abbott, the manufacturer of Similac.
Bonnie Thompson, APRN, Director of Organizational Excellence at Backus Hospital, said parents who notice symptoms should call their pediatrician.
