Ostomy appliance cleanser is used on compatible ostomy appliances or related supplies, not directly on the skin around the stoma. It may be used with items such as ostomy pouches, drainage bags, tubing, or other appliance components when listed in the product instructions.
The skin around the stoma should be cared for with products intended for peristomal skin, such as compatible stoma cleaning wipes or skin cleansers. Product specifications and instructions should be reviewed carefully to confirm whether a cleanser is intended for appliance cleaning, skin cleansing, adhesive residue removal, deodorizing, or urinary and drainage supply cleaning.
