Saudi watchdog issues warning over recalled Nestle baby formula
RIYADH: The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) on Tuesday warned against consuming selected Nestle infant formula products after the company issued a voluntary recall over potential contamination.
The advisory covers products marketed under the NAN, ALFAMINO, S-26 GOLD and S-26 ULTIMA brands, which may be contaminated with cereulide, a toxin produced by Bacillus cereus bacteria that can pose a risk to infant health, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
The SFDA said the recall is a precautionary measure and confirmed that no related illnesses have been reported, SPA added.
Possible symptoms of exposure include nausea, repeated vomiting and abdominal pain.
Consumers have been advised not to use the affected products and to dispose of them immediately.
The authority said it is coordinating with Nestle to withdraw the products from the market and is monitoring the process.
Details of the affected products and batch numbers have been published by the SFDA, which urged the public to report food safety concerns via its unified call centre on 19999.
