Parents in the UK are being warned not to feed their babies using a particular batch of Aptamil First Infant Formula made by Danone.

The company is recalling the product because it contains a toxin, called cereulide, which can cause vomiting.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) says the only batch affected is the 800g pack coded EXP 31-10-2026 – no other batches are at risk.

Customers who still have some of this batch at home can return it to the shop where they bought it for a full refund with or without a receipt, says the FSA.

Cereulide is a toxin which is unlikely to be destroyed by cooking, or when making the infant milk, the FSA says.

If it’s consumed it can lead to symptoms like nausea, vomiting and abdominal cramps developing quickly.

The affected batch was sold between May and July 2025 and the expiry date, batch and time can be found on the lower back of the pack.

Earlier this month, another food giant, Nestle, issued a global recall of specific batches of its infant formula product over concerns they contained the same toxin, meaning they were unsafe for babies to consume.

At the time, Nestle said the problem was caused by an ingredient provided by one of its suppliers.
