A member asked:
My wife gives our newborn premature similac bc some1 gave her a case of it for free and she doesnt wanna 'waste' it. is it safe for my baby to drink?

Depends: This depends on the level of prematurity. If you said to me baby was a 36 week preemie, this would not be a big deal. What did the NICU send you home on? Similac is definitely safe, however, I want to say, since that is your primary concern.
