Authorities say no new likely cases have surfaced since the January recall update

Singapore has recalled two additional formula milk products after authorities detected cereulide toxin, extending a safety issue that has already triggered earlier product withdrawals and public health monitoring.

Two More Formula Products Recalled
The Singapore Food Agency and the Communicable Diseases Agency said two additional products have been recalled after cereulide toxin was detected. The products are Nestlé NAN HA2 from Switzerland and Nature One Dairy Organic Toddler Milk Formula Stage 3 from Australia.

Authorities said these products may have used the same raw ingredient source linked to earlier implicated formula batches. They also said these are the last two batches identified after SFA completed testing of infant formula products currently sold at major retail outlets in Singapore.

No New Likely Cases Reported
In a joint statement, the agencies said there have been no additional cases since the Jan. 30 update involving children who developed mild symptoms likely associated with cereulide exposure after consuming affected products. The three earlier cases have all recovered.

CDA added that there are currently no definitive clinical laboratory tests available to confirm cereulide poisoning. It is continuing surveillance with medical practitioners to monitor for possible new cases in children.

How Big the Supply Impact Is
CDA said the implicated batches of imported infant formula milk products account for about 5 percent of Singapore’s imported supply of infant formula. Authorities stressed that these recalled items remain a minority of the overall infant formula products available in the local market.

For the implicated formula meant for children above one year old, the agency said the affected supply represents a negligible share of the overall market, with alternative options readily available.

Recall Follows Earlier Action in January
The latest move follows SFA’s Jan. 8 direction to stop the sale of five Nestlé infant formula and follow-on formula batches because of the potential presence of cereulide toxin. Additional recalls were then announced on Jan. 17 and Jan. 30 as testing widened.

CDA’s guidance for parents and caregivers says cereulide can cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and lethargy, and that caregivers should seek medical attention if a child appears unwell after consuming recalled products.

What Parents and Caregivers Should Watch
The agencies’ latest message suggests the immediate public health risk appears contained for now, but the recall remains important because infant and toddler formula is a highly sensitive product category. Parents and caregivers are expected to check product names and batches carefully and avoid using recalled items.

For Singaporean families, the key issue is confidence in product safety and having clear alternatives available. For Indonesians and others in the region, the case also shows how quickly infant formula safety issues can trigger multi-agency action, market disruption, and heightened scrutiny across supply chains.

Singapore’s recall of two more formula milk products extends an already serious safety episode, but authorities say there have been no new likely cases since late January and that affected products form only a small share of the market. The bigger challenge now is restoring public trust while ensuring parents have clear guidance and safe replacement options.
