Hi , it may seem odd that I'm posting about this product now it's gone , but Coloplast made a lot of people happy while it had this plug available .It was for silencing a noisy stoma, was shaped like a mushroom, and you inserted it after you had been or irrigated, for colostomies only .I used it all the years I was working and like many people who relied on it , I am gutted , now that it's gone .I don't think it was available in the U/S , but in the UK it is very sorely missed .To my knowledge , there is nothing like it on the market .I hate the way manufacturers just withdraw products with no notice given to users .I have a friend who has no stoma but relied on the Peristeen anal plug when going out .That too just disappeared overnight , now only available in the U/S at an eye watering price per item ! by the way , Hi everyone and happy New Year (soon ) !! Welcome to the forum, @rainy12! Is this what you're referring to? If so, I know it as a "stoma cap", and I'd be very surprised if they discontinued it. If that's what you're looking for, other brands may have similar options. Just your friendly neighborhood ostomate. @veganostomy No, this is just a stoma cap. A stoma plug is something different; it’s meant to go in the stoma. I have never used one; I don’t think it was available in Canada either. It is frustrating when products that we come to rely on are no longer available. Especially when it affects quality of life.   Laurie Just a semicolon @tigerlily It's like another world of products when we're talking about colostomies (vs. ileostomies). 🤣 Happy new year 😊 Just your friendly neighborhood ostomate. @veganostomy You’re absolutely right about that! Happy New Year to you as well, Eric. And a big thank you for all the work you put into this site.   Laurie Just a semicolon sorry , I would have posted a picture of it but when I click on link , it just asks for an url ? sorry , I would have posted a picture of it but when I click on link , it just asks for an url ? There should be an "attach file" with a button to browse using the default system dialogue under the chat box area. If you click on the icon in the text formatting bar, then it will ask for a URL.  Just your friendly neighborhood ostomate.
