I&rsquo;ve used both the M9 and the Adapt.  I tried the Tic Tacs early on but don&rsquo;t really think they did anything.

Hello, I'm Marguerite. I use the lubricant and deodorant by Coloplast, and it does very well to keep odor down. Put drops inside your bag after each emptying of the bag. Hope this helps!
