Official-source summary
What happened?
Nestlé has updated the recall of several SMA Infant Formula and Follow-On Formula because cereulide (toxin) has been found in the product. This recall has been extended to include one additional batch for one product. Please see the additional product batch marked with * in the product details below. The additional product included in this update is distributed only within Northern Ireland.
Reason given
The presence of cereulide (toxin) in the products listed above. Cereulide is a toxin produced by some strains of Bacillus cereus. Cereulide is highly heat stable meaning it is unlikely to be deactivated or destroyed by cooking, using boiling water or when making the infant milk. If consumed it can lead to rapid onset of symptoms. Symptoms caused by this toxin include nausea, vomiting and abdominal cramps. Even if you have not identified ill-health in your baby as a result of consumption of this product, it is essential to stop using it. If the infant formula or follow-on formula was prescribed by a health professional for your infant, consult a pharmacist or other medical professional before changing formula.
Action reported
Nestlé is recalling the above products. Point of sale notices will be displayed in all retail stores that are selling these products. These notices explain to customers why the products are being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the products. Please see the attached notice.
