Hey all!  I am new to this site but I am not new to being an ostomy warrior. I’m going on nine years. Anyone have advice or suggestions on how to eliminate order? I’ve tried the adapt from Hollister and that just makes it worse. Any suggestions, besides not eating or drinking the things I love?!

Hi Littlemama and welcome to the site.  This topic has been covered extensively in the past few days.  If you just scroll down, you should find lots of info.  Good luck!

There are no solutions to eliminate odors while eating and drinking what you want. There are many options to reduce odor in addition to Hollister's Adapt, Coloplast has Brava, ConvaTec has Esenta and many other companies provide products.They provide free samples so you can see which one works best for you.

I use Be Free and you can obtain a free sample from:

"https://www.befreetechnologies.com/product-page/be-free-system-liquid-pods"

You can also try 10 - 20 ml of Hydrogen Peroxide -- I use it if I inadvertently run out of Be Free.

Interesting ....

I did not know about Hydrogen Peroxide

 

.....

I don't know about the US - but here in UK marketing of branded products has overtaken the Dry-salter and indeed the informed pharmacist too ..... But I guess if one has the chemical knowledge there is always the base knowledge which of course it going to source - Invaluable!

Thank you for sharing this nugget of info :-) :-)Hydrogen Peroxide

I have used hydrogen peroxide for many years.  Works great and it's super cheap!

M9 works for me.

are u also thinking bag odor osmosis? the stink left after emptying? in bathroom?  or just bag limiting odor?

welcome to the site.

Adapt does the job in the bag for me. As for the bathroom stank, a couple of candles help a bunch.

I always associated candles and candlelight with love and romance. However, as you point out, it has other uses as well. Good idea, perfumed candles to remove odour. 'Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness' (or odour).

candles burning add a warmth to the room as well.

i have used febreeze plug ins ( waste of money)

i have used battery operated sprayers too..

i have used the vapor type devices that emit a smoke screen.

yes three types of  devices placed in my house and bathroom.

alot of batteries.. alittle over the top too.. but..

nothing beats the candle..
