Walmart’s ‘Parent’s Choice’ formula recalled: What parents need to know

If you buy Parent’s Choice baby formula at Walmart you need to check to see if your product is being recalled.

The manufacturer of Walmart’s Parent’s Choice Advantage Infant Formula Milk-Based Powder with Iron, Perrigo Company, is recalling the product because it may be contained with metal. There are no reports of babies experiencing adverse effects, but the company says it is proceeding with the recall out of an “abundance of caution stemming from a consumer report.”

If you buy this formula look on the bottom of the tub to check the lot code and use by date. If it is lot Code C26EVFV with a “use by” date of February 26, 2021, it is part of the recall. Don’t use it and take it back to Walmart for a refund.

These tubs retail for just under $20.

The FDA suggests “consumers with any health-related questions should contact their healthcare provider”, and you can also call Perrigo Consumer Affairs at 866-629-6181.
