So disappointed in how Abbot has responded to us and to the media. They say that there were no illness cases reported of the bad batch of the Similac Alimentum formula in South-Africa after I phoned several times to report that my one month old son was hospitalized due to this formula. So, stop spreading the lies to the media because I am going to send all my evidence to the media. This is such a disappointment because my son was actually poisoned by this formula and Abbot is not owning up to it. On Saturday 19th of February, we opened a new tin (was part of the bad batch) of the Similac Alimentum and my son was admitted to the Arwyp medical hospital on Monday 21st of February due to diarrhea and dehydration. We still gave him the Similac Alimentum until we heard the news on Wednesday the 23rd of February. Up until then there was still no improvement with my son's stomach in hospital. Only after the doctor have called us to tell us we need to change his formula, he showed improvement. My son weighed 4.4kg on Monday the 14th of February and on Wednesday the 23rd of February he weighed 3.83kg just to give you some perspective of what you have done to my son.
They also came and fetch the formula stating they will reimburse us for the formula and we are still waiting for the reimbur*****t. So I am currently waiting for an urgent response from Abbott regarding this.
