Babies Affected by NEC: Litigation Against Enfamil & Similac
At Nigh Goldenberg Raso & Vaughn, we are dedicated to advocating for families whose newborn babies have suffered from Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) allegedly caused by infant formula products like Enfamil, Similac, and others. NEC is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition that affects the intestines of premature infants or newborns with underlying health complications. If your child has been diagnosed with NEC after being fed certain infant formula products, you may be entitled to compensation for the damage.
What is Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC)
NEC affects the intestines of premature infants, who are in a weakened immunocompromised state due to their premature births. Infants battling NEC may experience swollen abdominals, green fluid in the stomach, bloody stool, trouble breathing, and low heart rate.
NEC is diagnosed by completing several diagnostic tests including x-rays and blood tests. Once diagnosed treatment may include IV fluids, antibiotics, feeding changes and other treatments. In severe cases NEC may result in surgeries or death.
Lawsuits Against Enfamil, Similac, and Other Brands
The litigation we are pursuing involves claims against prominent infant formula brands such as Enfamil, Similac, and other manufacturers whose products have been linked to NEC in newborn babies. Through thorough investigation and expert analysis, we aim to establish the causal relationship between the consumption of these products and the development of NEC in infants. By pursuing legal action, we seek to secure compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other damages suffered by affected families.
