i was advised that allimentum was also recalled. Please advise me if you were informed the same. My baby has medical issues that nessecitate this special diet and i would have to explore other alternatives. Thank you.
my dad went to purchase alimentum at the local wal-mart and was told they did’nt have any cans becaus thier was a recall. i have tried to research this on the computer ( find out if this is true) and have not been able to find anything. He was able to purchase the pre-made plastic bottles. thier is a number to call but its the responsability of the company to have this information posted on the web site for the consumer.
I being using Isomil Advance with Iron for 10 months since my baby was born. Today I open a can and the can and formula (after mix) smells terrible. Like a metal. I keep opening all the cans I have and smell the same. There are different batch no. Please take this product out and let me know what I need to do. I’m scare my baby will have serious problems. So far he is having a “cold” but not sure if is because of the formula.
Thank you
