Three Batches of a2 Platinum Baby Formula Pulled from US Shelves Over Safety Concerns

BOULDER, CO – The a2 Milk Company announced on May 2, 2026, that it is voluntarily pulling three specific batches of its a2 Platinum Premium infant formula from American store shelves after discovering the presence of cereulide in the products.

The recalled formula is specifically the a2 Platinum Premium USA label version designed for infants aged 0-12 months. This particular product line is distributed exclusively within the United States market.

Cereulide is a heat-resistant toxin that poses potential health risks to infants who consume contaminated formula. The company initiated the recall as a precautionary measure after detecting this substance during quality testing.

Parents and caregivers who have purchased a2 Platinum Premium infant formula should check their product batch numbers against the recalled lots. The company advises consumers to stop using any formula from the affected batches immediately.

This recall affects only the specific batches identified by the company and does not extend to other a2 Milk Company products or different lot numbers of the same formula.
