Getting Multiple Uses from Marathon Skin Protectant Vials?

This topic is about using Marathon Skin Protectant vials and where to purchase them. The person asking the question is curious if a single vial can be used more than once and is also looking for places to buy it, especially since Amazon limits its sale to business accounts.

Here are some helpful insights and advice:

1. Each vial of Marathon Skin Protectant is designed for single use only. After you apply it, the tip hardens, and there is very little product left, making it impossible to reuse.

2. If you're in the U.S., you can purchase Marathon Skin Protectant from websites like MedicalMonks.com and VitalityMedical.com.

3. For those in Canada, you can order it through various ostomy supply companies. While specific supplier names weren't mentioned, many people have had success ordering through their usual ostomy distributors.

4. A practical tip for using Marathon: save it for when your peristomal skin is broken or irritated. For regular use, a standard skin prep wipe should be enough.

5. There is some frustration in the community when suppliers stop carrying essential items like Marathon, which can be inconvenient for those who rely on it.
