It was reported that an end user who had been using hollister ostomy barriers for over a year, recently developed blisters of various sizes under the barrier and tape.
He has been to many healthcare providers who cannot determine the cause of the irritation.
A dermatologist recently took a biopsy of the blister to be examined for bullous pemphigoid.
About 3 weeks ago, he was prescribed triamcinolone acetonide cream to use on the irritated skin.
Hollister will send out a different barrier product for him to sample.
