Na'Scent - Effective and Affordable Deodorizer?

This discussion is about Na'Scent, an ostomy deodorizer, and whether it's both effective and budget-friendly. The person who started the conversation saw it advertised at a lower price and is curious if it works well and if others have tried it.

Here are some insights and advice shared by others:

1. Na'Scent experiences:
- Some people find Na'Scent to be the best deodorizer they've tried and take advantage of the manufacturer's sales, which offer a 23% discount. Free samples are often available.
- Others have received sample bottles, sometimes with free shipping, but found the product didn't work for them.
- You can also request samples through Bullen.

2. Alternative commercial products:
- Coloplast Brava Deodorant/Lubricant is a long-time favorite for many users.
- ConvaTec offers gelling/deodorizing tablets that can be sampled. These tablets turn liquid ileostomy output into gel while also controlling odor.

3. Low-cost or DIY options:
- Sprinkling plain baking soda into the pouch after emptying is a popular, inexpensive way to eliminate odor.
- Some people use a homemade external spray when they're out and about.

4. General notes:
- Some ostomates choose not to use in-pouch deodorizers at all, as they find none to be consistently effective. They prefer to try new options as they become available.
