Baby formula got recalled from CVS in Florida and 11 other states as well as H-E-B stores
The latest infant formula recall hits the store brands of nation’s seventh largest grocer and one of the two largest national pharmacy chains.
Perrigo Company, which makes H-E-B Premium Infant Formula with Iron Milk-Based Powder and CVS Health Premium Infant Formula with Iron Milk-Based Powder, yanked 16,500 cans of formula because they have Vitamin D above the maximum allowed levels.
“For the vast majority of infants, short-term consumption of the affected lot codes is unlikely to cause adverse health implications,” Perrigo’s FDA-posted recall notice states. “In a small subset of physiologically vulnerable infants (e.g., impaired renal function), there is the potential that consumption of the recalled product could result in health complications.”
The H-E-B formula sent to the Texas’ dominant supermarket chain on Feb. 2 had lot Nos. T11LMXC, with a use by date of Nov. 11, 2025; and T09LMXC, with a use by date of Nov. 9, 2025.

Return the formula to the store for a full refund.
