Why is the formula your patients get from Texas WIC a specific brand?

The WIC program is required to have a contract with a specific formula company to help keep costs down. There are separate contracts for milk-based and soy-based formulas. We renew these contracts every five years. The award for the contract from October 2022 – September 2027 for milk-based formula is Mead Johnson, the makers of Enfamil.

The milk-based formulas offered under the new contract include:

Enfamil Infant
Enfamil Gentlease
Enfamil A.R.
Enfamil Reguline

The soy-based formula will continue to be with Abbott, the makers of Similac.
