If your newborn suffered or died from necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) after using Similac or Enfamil infant formula, contact us today. Let us help you fight for the justice you and your family deserve.

What You Need to Know About Infant Formula 

Abbott Laboratories, makers of Similac, and Mead Johnson & Company, LLC, makers of Enfamil, face an ever-growing number of lawsuits filed by distraught parents whose premature newborns suffered or died after using the companies’ cow’s milk-based infant formulas. 

Both manufacturers knew their cow’s milk-based formulas were capable of causing premature infants to develop necrotizing enterocolitis, a deadly intestinal disease. Still, they continued mass-marketing and selling the potentially harmful formulas without informing parents about their life-threatening side effects, making no mention of the dangers on their products’ warning labels or any other means.

Infant Formula Lawsuit FAQs

Have Similac and Enfamil Formulas Been Recalled?

In regard to their connection with NEC, no, Enfamil and Similac have not been recalled. 

In early 2022, Abbott Nutrition did voluntarily recall a few lots of their formulas manufactured in their Sturgis, MI, after four babies suffered Cronobacter sakazakii infections and one baby became infected with Salmonella Newport. Two of the babies died, and the FDA and Abbott are still investigating.

Currently, The FDA is advising consumers to not use Similac, Alimentum, or EleCare powdered infant formulas if:

  • The first two digits of the code on the container are 22 through 37
  • The code contains K8, SH or Z2
  • The expiration date is April 1, 2022 or later
