Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) Linked to Use of Baby Formula

NEC is a life-threatening condition that has been linked to the use of cow’s milk based formula in premature infants.

Premature babies often need extra care and nutrition to support their developing bodies and offset the low birth weight. Many medical professionals will advise cow’s milk-based formula or fortifiers for premature babies during their early life.

• Loss of appetite
• Diarrhea
• Abdominal pain
• Abdominal swelling
• Abnormal breathing
• Change in heart rate or blood pressure
• Lack of weight gain

The scientific studies have shown the risk of premature infants developing Necrotizing Enterocolitis is substantially heightened when fed cow’s milk-based formulas, such as Similac and Enfamil. However, the manufacture of these baby formula brands failed to warn parents of the association of these life-threatening side effects, causing parents of premature infants to give their children these formula or fortifier products.
