Can't I use a baby

available to ostomates for disposal. The drawbacks have been the thin
see through plastic, the noise made when handling these bags, and the
lack of any sealing device to prevent leakage. Now there's a better

a scented disposal bag?
No. We've heard reports of allergic reactions to these bags, specifically
the baby disposal bags with a scent emulating baby powder. If you have
chemical sensitivities, or are concerned about inhaling the fumes being
released by these bags, you should avoid them. We've designed the x-Bag
