Baby Formula (NEC) Lawsuit
Lawsuits allege that certain cow's-milk-based baby formulas increase the risk of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in premature infants — without adequate warning.
Overview
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a severe intestinal illness that primarily affects premature babies. Lawsuits allege manufacturers knew their cow's-milk-based formulas raised NEC risk and failed to warn parents and providers.
The injuries
NEC can cause intestinal damage, emergency surgery, lasting complications, and in the most severe cases, death.
Who may qualify
Families of premature infants who were fed cow's-milk-based formula and later diagnosed with NEC may be eligible to pursue a claim.
