Stoma Bag Accessories
For people with ostomies, stoma bags are life-changing medical devices. But, they can be challenging to use on their own.
At Medical Monks, we’ve curated a diverse selection of accessories designed to make ostomy systems more comfortable, more convenient, and more fashion-forward! Learn a bit about each category, and choose the stoma bag accoutrements that work best for you.
Barrier Films & Seals
Barrier films and seals form a protective layer over the skin around a stoma, shielding it from leaks, ostomy plate friction, and irritating adhesives. Most products are films, foams, wipes, or rings.
To protect peristomal or periwound skin, try Solventum (3M) Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film Foam. It creates a flexible, breathable, waterproof layer that contours to peristomal skin, protecting it without leaving residue.
To shield skin from ileostomies and urostomies with aggressive output, consider a Brava Protective Seal. The easy-to-mold polymer ring prevents irritation from sweat and oils while resisting output fluids.
Barrier Extenders
Barrier extenders improve ostomy bag stability by strengthening the wafer’s adherence to skin. They also enhance protection by widening the area of skin shielded by barrier film.
Strips like Brava Elastic Barrier Strips are flexible and hypoallergenic, improving barrier security while freeing you to move easily.
Bag Covers & Style Accessories
Stoma bag covers and style accessories change an ostomy bag’s appearance, so its color and texture fits with your outfit. Soft, imitation suede covers like the Ostique Sk.ns Ostomy Pouch Cover come in a range of hues, making your bag look less medical and more fashionable.
Stoma Bag Supports
Support accessories improve an ostomy bag’s stability, keeping it from jostling or tugging. The Corsinel Ostomy Support Belt is a popular abdominal option.
The belt alleviates pressure with its Max Support panels, while its four-way flex fabric contours comfortably to the body. The protective cushion is customizable, so it fits the wearer’s stoma pouch precisely.
Deodorants & Lubricants
Deodorants and lubricants improve a stoma bag’s scent and texture. While each product uses a slightly different formula or mechanism, the Adapt Odor Eliminator and Lubricant is respected for its easy effectiveness.
Adapt’s slick deodorant neutralizes odors rather than masking them, and it simplifies emptying by preventing sticking or bag static.
