The Wyoming Department of Agriculture Consumer Health Services division is contacting stores across the state ensure they are aware of the recall and have removed products from shelves. The product may have been purchased online so consumers should check their pantry as well.
If you still have the formula in your home, you should take a photo or record the information on the bottom of the package, keep the container in a safe spot and be sure to label that product as DO NOT USE. If your child develops symptoms your state health department might want to collect your formula container for testing. If your child does not develop symptoms after 30 days, throw your containers out.
Most infants with infant botulism will initially develop constipation, poor feeding, loss of head control, and difficulty swallowing, which can progress to difficulty breathing and respiratory arrest. Symptoms of infant botulism, which is diagnosed clinically, can take as long as several weeks to develop following formula ingestion.
Parents and Caregivers should stop using any ByHeart infant formula products immediately. If your child consumed ByHeart formula and is experiencing symptoms, seek immediate medical attention. If your child consumed ByHeart formula and is not currently showing symptoms, continue monitoring them and seek medical attention if symptoms develop.
The recall and investigation is ongoing and more information can be found on the investigation through the FDA or CDC websites listed below.
