How long can i keep formula milk in fridge?

2 days if not frozen: The refrigerator section temperature varies because people open the doors to move foods & drinks in and out all day long. If breastmilk is meant to be used, it can go in the fridge section but should be used within 1-2 days. If breastmilk is meant to be frozen, it should be put in the freezer as soon as possible after pumping. Store up to 3 months in a fridge freezer or 6 months in a deep freezer.
