Similac Advance and Alimentum Formula Recalled

Tuesday September 19, 2006
Similac AlimentumAccording to a press release from formula maker Abbott,

"...some bottles from these lots may not contain as much vitamin C as indicated on the label. Abbott discovered this problem as a result of consumer complaints for an unusually dark formula color. This problem is due to an isolated bottle defect, which has been corrected by the third-party supplier of the bottles."

The bottles in question are the ready-to-feed liquid variety. Some were available at stores and others were included in hospital discharge kits (free diaper bags). More information, including important lot numbers, is available in this report from the Associated Press.
