Enfamil LIPIL Infant Formula Class Action Lawsuit Settlement
By Sarah Pierce
A class action lawsuit settlement concerning false advertising of Enfamil infant formula has been reached. If you purchased Enfamil LIPIL formula between 2005 and 2010, you may be able to receive two free cans of formula or $12 cash from the class action settlement.
The Enfamil formula settlement will resolve a class action lawsuit, entitled Nelson v. Mead Johnson & Company, LLC, that alleges Mead Johnson falsely represented that Enfamil LIPIL is the only infant formula that contains DHA and ARA – fatty acids it claims are “clinically proved to improve brain and eye function in infants.” As a result, the class action lawsuit alleges, consumers were duped into paying more for the expensive Enfamil LIPIL formula over cheaper brands. (Please note: This is a case about false advertising, not about the safety of this product. No one is challenging the nutrition it provides and no one disputes that Enfamil LIPIL contains DHA and ARA.)
You’re considered a class member of the Enfamil class action lawsuit settlement if you bought Enfamil LIPIL infant formula in the United States between October 13, 2005 and March 31, 2010 (not including those who purchased it through the WIC program or for the purpose of resale.)
If the Enfamil formula class action settlement is approved, you will be eligible to receive the following:
(1) If you purchased Enfamil LIPIL formula for six months or less between October 13, 2005 and March 31, 2010, you can file a claim to receive either one 12.5 oz container of Infant Formula or $6 in cash.
(2) If you purchased Enfamil LIPIL formula for more than six months between October 13, 2005 and March 31, 2010, you can file a claim to receive either two 12.5 oz containers of Infant Formula or $12 in cash.
To receive your free Enfamil infant formula or cash payment, you must submit a valid claim form by November 25, 2011 either online at www.FormulaSettlement.com or via mail to the Settlement Administrator.
Detailed information about how to submit a valid claim form and ensure you receive your settlement benefits from the Enfamil LIPIL Baby Formula Class Action Lawsuit Settlement can be found in our Open Lawsuit Settlements section.

What about the people that did receive some on the WIC program but also purchased cans?
I have a set of twins and had to purchase extra formula aside from what WIC supplied.
Can I still fill out the form?
