ALLEGAN, Mich. — Perrigo Company PLC recalled 16,500 cans of store-brand Premium Infant Formula with Iron Milk-Based Powder due to levels of Vitamin D above the maximum level permitted on Friday.
The recalled product was shipped to H-E-B Grocery Company, LP in TX and CVS in the following states: TX, FL, CA, SC, VA, IN, TN, NJ, MI, PA, RI and MO.
No other products or retailers have been impacted by this recall.
The company initiated the voluntary recall in constitution with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) when they discovered the elevated levels of Vitamin D through routine testing.
