Hello all,
Just wanted to let you know that Abbott Health Care Company has recalled their 32-ounce plastic bottles of Similac Alimentum Advance liquid formula with lot number 401895V and use-by date of 1 May 2007 as well as their Similac Advance with Iron with lot numbers 40177RH or 40172RH and use-by 1 November 2007 (distributed in the US, Puerto Rico and Guam). No need to worry, its just that there was a problem with the bottles on those lots and its possible that oxygen entered the bottles causing the lvel of vitamin C to decrease over time. There have been no reports of medical problems due to this defect, but there is the possibility of Vitamin C deficiency if the infant has been drinking from the affected bottles for 2-4 weeks. Questions can be directed to Abbott at (800) 624-3412.
