We are aware of a recall of select infant formulas made by another manufacturer and can reassure that no Enfamil A+ products are affected.
We understand that this situation is worrisome to parents and understand how important infant formula is for babies and children who rely on it.
The health and safety of our consumers is our top priority. All Enfamil A+, Enfamil, Nutramigen A+ and PurAmino A+ branded products, as well as Enfagrow A+ toddler nutritional drinks, are safe to use and remain available. All Enfamil A+ branded infant formulas provide complete nutrition and support healthy growth.
All of our infant formulas have undergone extensive quality tests and checks, including for Cronobacter [and salmonella], 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.
We can help you with an alternative according to your necessity. Our Enfamil A+ experts are happy to help you find the product that's right for you and your little one. Please see below for the Enfamil A+ vs Similac Comparison Tool. Please consult your child's doctor before you make any changes.
