Similac Formula Recall

Similac Formula Like Above Have been Recalled

Yesterday we broke the story about the Abbott Laboratories recall on the Similac powdered baby formula. Although Similac posted the affected lot numbers and allowed customers to check to see if their lot number was tainted with the beetle parts, the website was, and has been, up and down for many people. We did some digging and were able to find more information on the recalled products as well as lot numbers.

The following Similac products are part of this recall, however, not every single items in these product lines are tainted:

• Similac Advance – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Advance EarlyShield – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Sensitive – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Isomil Advance – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Sensitive Isomil Soy – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Organic – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Organic and Similac Advance Organic – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Sensitive R.S. – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Sensitive for Spit-Up – 1.45-lb and 2.12-lb
• Similac Go & Grow – 1.38-lb
• Similac Go & Grow EarlyShield – 1.38-lb
• Similac Go & Grow Soy – 1.38-lb

The following lot numbers have been confirmed to be tainted with possible beetle parts. If your formula container has any of these lot numbers, it is recommended that you do not use it. You can return the product to the place that it was purchased for a full refund, or call Abbott Laboratories hotline at (800) 986-8850.

87932T20, 88117T26, 78208T2,88136T20,91433t20,800-986-8850,800-545-5216,800-515-7677,800-986-8800,847-937-6100,(847) 935-8865,(847)935-3456,66128RB6,61251 RB6,61347RB,84314 RB,85454 T2,86580 T20,88137T20 and 90372T20.

Similac Formula products which have no relation to the recall are as follows. If you have any of the following products, you do not need to worry about this recall:

* Any and All liquid forms of Similac formula (only powdered forms affected)
* Any concentrated forms of Similac formula
* Smaller size powder forms of Similac formula (0.6-oz singles)
* Similac Expert Care Alimentum
* Similac Expert Care Neosure
* Elecare
* Similac Human Milk Fortifier

Abbott has confirmed that they are shutting down the production of Similac formula in the building which initially tainted the powdered formula with beetle parts, until they are 100% certain that the problems with the production process are solved. In total an estimated 5 million products are part of this recall.
