Reckitt Benckiser unit remembers presumably contaminated child formulation powder, FDA says

The corporate stated no “illnesses or adverse events” have been recorded but however urged customers who’ve bought Nutramigen to verify the underside of the can to see if they’ve one of many presumably contaminated batches.

The impacted batch numbers and their corresponding can sizes are as follows:

• ZL3FHG, 12.6 oz cans

• ZL3FQD, 12.6 oz cans
• ZL3FRW, 19.8 oz cans
