Necrotizing Enterocolitis is a serious gastrointestinal condition that primarily affects premature and low-birth-weight infants. Some studies have linked cow’s milk-based formulas—such as Similac and Enfamil—to an increased risk of NEC in these vulnerable babies. As a result, multiple lawsuits have been filed against formula manufacturers, claiming that they failed to warn parents and healthcare providers about the dangers. The NEC lawsuits are part of broader mass tort or class action efforts, aiming to hold companies accountable and secure compensation for affected families.
