For securing a barrier plate, moisture has potential to affect wafer adhesion, leading to potential detachment later in the day. Adapt Stoma Powder helps address this issue by absorbing moisture related to broken skin around the stoma to improve the security of your ostomy system’s barrier wafer. The powder absorbs moisture to assure that the skin surrounding the stoma can heal from tearing caused by frequent pouch changes. Additionally, the powder enables the skin barrier to adhere to the skin and avoid leaks.
Skin barrier wipes are optional. Most contain alcohol, which will cause a stinging sensation when applied to raw skin areas. Skin barrier wipes are not necessary to use over stoma powder, but your nurse may recommend them.
No, the use of cosmetic type powders will usually interfere with the seal on your pouch, causing leaking and further irritation.
Stop using the powder when the skin has healed and is no longer moist to the touch. Adapt stoma powder is not designed to be used for the prevention of skin irritation. Stop using the powder and contact your healthcare provider if your skin has not improved or is getting worse.
