NEC Lawsuit: Key Facts, Ongoing Updates, and Industry Accountability

As of May 2025, the NEC (necrotizing enterocolitis) baby formula litigation is advancing significantly, with numerous lawsuits filed against major manufacturers, including Abbott Laboratories (maker of Similac) and Mead Johnson (a subsidiary of Reckitt Benckiser and producer of Enfamil).

These lawsuits allege that cow's milk-based formulas increase the risk of NEC in premature infants, a serious and potentially fatal intestinal disease.

Key Facts

Studies indicate that premature infants fed cow's milk-based formulas like Similac and Enfamil have a higher risk of developing NEC compared to those fed human breast milk. Significant Verdicts: In July 2024, a Missouri jury awarded $495 million to a family whose infant developed NEC after consuming Similac. In March 2024, an Illinois jury ordered Mead Johnson to pay $60 million to a mother whose premature baby died from NEC after being fed Enfamil.

Recent Developments

Expert Testimony Admitted: In May 2025, Judge Pallmeyer ruled that expert testimony asserting a causal link between preterm baby formulas and NEC is admissible in court. This decision allows future trials to proceed with such evidence.

A Missouri judge vacated a previous defense verdict favoring Abbott and Mead Johnson, citing intentional violations of court orders by the defense. This decision nullifies the companies' sole courtroom win in the NEC litigation.

Eligibility for Filing a Lawsuit

You may be eligible to file an NEC baby formula lawsuit if:

Your premature infant was fed Similac or Enfamil formula and was diagnosed with NEC.

The diagnosis must have also occurred within the statute of limitations, which varies by state.

Legal experts recommend consulting with an attorney experienced in product liability and mass tort litigation to assess your case.

Protecting What Matters Most: Your Child’s Health and Your Right to Justice

In the journey of motherhood, nothing is more important than ensuring the

health and well-being of your baby. But for many families, a trusted product—infant formula—has become the source of heartbreaking consequences.

Recent studies have revealed a deeply concerning connection between cow’s milk-based formulas like Similac and Enfamil, and a serious condition called Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) in premature infants. Research shows that preemies fed these formulas face a significantly higher risk

of developing NEC compared to those who are breastfed.

Even more troubling is the fact that

manufacturers have failed to adequately warn

parents and healthcare providers about these risks.
