ABU DHABI (ALETIHAD)
The Ministry of Climate Change and Environment has published a list of batch numbers for specific Nestlé infant formula products that may contain substances harmful to infants.
To ensure the health and safety of infants, MOCCAE urges all consumers in the UAE who have purchased these products to verify the batch numbers found on the base of the packaging and compare them against the list provided. Should the batch numbers match, consumers are advised not to consume the product and to dispose of it safely.
The Ministry confirmed it has implemented all necessary precautionary measures in collaboration with Nestlé and local authorities. All affected batches of the products have been withdrawn from retail outlets and warehouses across the UAE, and their sale and distribution have been prohibited.
Furthermore, the Ministry, in coordination with local authorities, has collected samples of various Nestlé-branded milk products currently available in UAE markets for analysis to ensure they are free from any harmful ingredients.
