No Enfamil A+® products were recalled and we’re doing our part to help with supply.
There was a recall of select infant formulas made by another manufacturer that has impacted the supply of infant formulas across the nation but be reassured that no Enfamil A+® products are affected. We are taking no chances to ensure the continued safety and quality of all Enfamil A+® family of products. We understand that this situation is worrisome to parents and understand how important infant formula is for babies and children who rely on it.
Our Commitment to Quality: Enfamil A+® Products Remain Safe
The health and safety of our consumers is our top priority. All Enfamil A+®, Enfamil®, Nutramigen A+® and PurAmino A+® branded products are safe to use and remain in production.
All of our infant formulas have undergone extensive quality tests and checks, which meet or exceed all standards set by Health Canada. We wish to remind caregivers that the health of their baby depends on carefully following all label instructions regarding safe preparation and usage.
While supply of our routine formula products remains stable in Canada, there has been a disruption in the supply of formulas for the treatment of cow’s milk protein allergy leading to an increase in demand for Nutramigen A+® powder and Nutramigen A+® with LGG®. This unexpected market demand for all Nutramigen A+® products has dramatically increased due to the recall of infant formula competitor products, causing significant challenges for availability of extensively hydrolyzed formula in Canada. We are working in close collaboration with Health Canada to identify alternatives. If you need help finding formula or an alternative for your baby’s cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA), please consult with your baby’s physician.
Your Pharmacist or Physician may give you Nutramigen® Concentrate, which has been imported to Canada from the United States as a temporary measure based on the Interim policy on the importation and sale of infant formulas released by Health Canada to support the increased demand of extensively hydrolyzed formulas. Here is the label:
Should French be your preferred language, please find the translated label here.
If you have any questions or concerns about using our products or trying one for the first time, please don’t hesitate to contact us. When in doubt, we will help you figure it out.

Helping You Find Alternative Formulas
We understand that the supply situation is worrisome to parents and understand how important infant formula is for babies and children who rely on it. If needed, we can help you find an alternative according to your necessity. Please see below for the Enfamil A+ formula comparison chart. Please consult your child's doctor before you make any changes.
Replenishing Supply
We are working to increase production of Enfamil A+® products to help restock the shelves and make more formula readily available to everyone.
How to Find Formulas Online
When searching for infant formula online, be sure to update the default search filters. Check off curbside or delivery options, as these may cause the website to incorrectly say that there is no formula available or in stock, and there may actually be some available for in-store purchase. Always call ahead to confirm availability.
