Recalled baby formula Farmalac 0-12.
Crecelac and Farmalac-branded infant formula is being recalled after being placed on shelves without proper evaluation by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Dairy Manufacturers Inc. issued a voluntary recall for all lot codes of formulas available in the U.S. including Crecelac Infant 0-12, Farmalac 0-12 and Farmalac 0-12 Low lactose at the retail and wholesale level.
According to a notice posted by the FDA, the products "were sold in the U.S. without complying with the FDA’s infant formula regulations."
The FDA notified the company after realizing Dairy Manufacturers didn't submit the required pre-market notification.
