Similac Recalls Infant Formula

9/24/10  Yesterday, as some of our patients are aware, Similac recalled some lots of infant formula.  This occurred because an infestation of small beetles was found at one of their plants, and insect parts were detected in some of their powdered formula.  According to Abbott Nutrition, who makes Similac, the “Ready to Feed” liquid was not involved.  Abbott assures the public, that no infant has become ill from ingesting formula, and the problem is being remedied.  The amount of formula affected is less than 0.5% of the current formula stocked on shelves.
