There is a recall of Similac, Similac PM 60/40, Alimentum, EleCare and EleCare Jr. powdered formulas. If you have recalled formula, do NOT use it. Learn more at similacrecall.com. Because babies need a specific balance of nutrients, you should NOT water down infant formula or make homemade formula. If you cannot find any available formula, talk to your pediatrician about other alternatives. Read more from a trusted pediatrician here.
Texas WIC has temporarily added more options so you can find a formula at the store to meet your baby’s needs without updating your card. For a list of alternative brands that you can get with WIC, visit texashhs.org/wicfoodupdates.
