  • Description:
    For families who need infant formula during an emergency, ready-to-feed (RTF) infant formula is the safest option. During a water-related emergency, such as a natural disaster or drinking water outage, tap water may not be safe to mix with powdered infant formula. RTF infant formula is a sterile liquid infant formula that is ready to feed without adding water. There may be times when powdered infant formula is the only option during an emergency. If a family must use powdered infant formula when tap water is unsafe to drink, follow these steps to prepare and store it safely and correctly. ; CS328711-N | Last updated June 9, 2022 9:16 AM ; Prepare-and-Store-Powdered-Infant-Formula-IYCF-E-H.pdf
