Reckitt's Mead Johnson Nutrition recalls baby formula powder from US

Reckitt Benckiser Group's Mead Johnson Nutrition (MJN) is voluntarily recalling select batches of Nutramigen Powder from the U.S. market due to a possibility of contamination with Cronobacter sakazakii bacteria in product sampled outside the United States, the Food and Drug Administration said on Sunday. Nutramigen Powder, a specialty infant formula for the dietary management of Cows Milk Allergy (CMA) in 12.6- and 19.8-ounce cans, went through extensive testing by MJN and tested negative for the bacteria, the FDA said. The Nutramigen containers were manufactured in June 2023 and distributed primarily in June, July and August, the FDA said. All the recalled products have the "Use By Date" of "1 Jan 2025,", Reckitt said, asking customers to dispose of the products if they belong to the recalled batches. "No other U.S.-distributed Nutramigen batches or other Reckitt products are impacted," Reckitt said.
