Parents urgently warned over baby milk being recalled amid serious health and safety fears

Parents across the UK are being urgently warned to check their baby milk after a company has recalled its popular baby product.

Packs of Hipp Organic Combiotic First Infant Milk Starter Pack have been removed from shops' shelves amid serious health and safety fears.

Babies are at risk due to the presence of fish oil, which is not mentioned on the packaging.

Hipp has subsequently recalled the item, declaring it a 'risk' due to the error on the outer box.

The products poses a risk to tots who have an allergy to fish.

Hipp UK said: "The recall only concerns Hipp Organic Combiotic First Infant Milk Starter Pack 6x90ml with a best before date of January 9, 2020, March 11, 2020 or April 5, 2020.

"Please return it to your nearest Boots or Ocado retailer, or via the Hipp shop where you will be given a full refund.

"You do not need your receipt.

"We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused and will ensure this doesn't happen again. If you would like any further information, please contact: Hipp Organic Customer Services - 0845 050 1351."
