    Moist skin can cause the adhesive to detach from the skin

    Adhesives are generally designed to manage moistness. However, extensive moistness from e.g. the stoma itself or perspiring may result in adhesive breakdown, ultimately resulting in leakage and skin irritation.

    IMPORTANT! If you have any concerns – such as skin problems or how to use new products – you should always consult your stoma care nurse.

    • When having issues with extensive moistness, the frequency with which the adhesive is changed has to be adapted accordingly. Click and learn what to look out for when changing your adhesive.
    • If the moistness is due to excessive perspiring, it may help to use a neutral anti-perspirant roll-on in the area to be covered by the adhesive. 
    • It may help to use a different adhesive designed to be more durable, e.g. the Xpro.
