Nestle Recalls Baby Food in Uzbekistan
Uzbekistan
Nestle Food has announced a voluntary recall of a limited quantity of baby food products in Uzbekistan. The recall includes instant dry milk and yogurt-based formulas, as well as selected batches of specialized therapeutic amino-acid-based formulas.
The recall is due to the potential presence of cereumild toxin in arachidonic acid supplied by an external vendor. Ingestion of this substance may cause acute poisoning with symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.
The affected batches are:
NAN 1 OPTIPRO — 51490346AB, 51750346AA, 51900346AE, 51760346AA, 52180346AB, 52670346AE, 52680346AD, 51500346BA, 51910346BA
NAN 2 OPTIPRO — 5172080622, 5206080621, 5298080624, 5205080661, 5206080661, 5289080661, 5290080661, 5204080611, 5205080611
NAN Yogurt (0–12 months) — 51230017A1
NAN Supreme (0–12 months) — 52790742C1
ALFARE Amino — 51050017Y2, 51470017Y1, 52730017Y1
Nestle emphasizes that the toxin content is extremely low and there are no regulatory limits for cereumild in Uzbekistan. Nevertheless, as part of Nestle’s global risk reduction process, the voluntary recall of these batches started on January 5.
Consumers who purchased the affected products can return them according to established procedures. The recall does not affect other batches or other Nestle baby food products available in Uzbekistan.
Previously, similar recalls due to the toxin risk were conducted in several European countries and Kazakhstan.
