The California Department of Public Health (CDPH), the Center for Disease Control and Prevent (CDC) and multiple other states continue to investigate a large, multi-state outbreak, of infant botulism linked to at least two lots of ByHeart Whole nutrition infant formula. The manufacturer has now expanded their voluntary recall to all ByHeart formula nationwide - this includes both cans and single-serve Anywhere Pack™ sticks. Consumers with this product should stop using it immediately. Physicians with a suspected case of infant botulism may reach California’s Infant Botulism Treatment and Prevention Program at (510) 231-7600 at any time. Parents with concerns or questions about suspected infant botulism should seek medical advice immediately.
