Someone I know in another part of the world needs to use Colostonmy bags for a month or two and wanted me to check out if i can buy and send from here

Any idea where I can buy Colostonomy bags and base plates?

Coloplast is a name i recognise. Try here (I haven’t actually used this so don’t shoot me if it’s wrong):

Baffling range. You’ll need clear instructions re what to buy. I bet these things are £50k each in the USA..!

Bags come in different sizes and if you’re looking at two piece bags have different size and types of base plate.

If you can find out exactly what’s needed I’m sure I can help. Feel free to PM.

UK suppliers include:

Get the sizes, type they require. A local pharmacy with a trading account with an ostomy supplier will be able to get what you need for the next day.

Prices can range from £30-100 for a box which contains 10-30 bags.
