Adult diapers are the most popular incontinence products. People who need these products are usually so embarrassed to ask for different varieties that they pick up whichever they spot first. Internet is a lot of help for those who are not aware of different incontinence supplies. All you need to do is to look up the Internet, search for different types and pick the one that you like. You can also buy the products online instead of walking upto a drug store or a supermarket.
Types of Products Available
Let’s take a look at different kinds of products available in the market:
- Insert Pads & Liners - Pads and liners are small soaking pads that stick onto the underwear. They provide you with the required protection and can be thrown away after use.
- Booster Pads - Booster pads also fit into briefs and undergarments for an extra layer of protection. They are extra absorbent and a good option when you don’t want to take chances.
- Protective Undergarments - Protective undergarments are highly absorbent incontinence products. They look like a regular underwear and can be worn to pools. Usually they are disposable products, though a few brands also offer reusable versions.
- Bed Underpads - Bed underpads are reusable options for those who experience incontinence almost on a regular basis. They are made of absorbent material and have a waterproof layer on the other side that keeps the bed sheet dry. Mostly they are washable and reusable.
- Drip Collectors - If you suffer from constant leakage, you can turn to devices, such as drip collectors, condom catheter or a Cunningham clamp. Usually all of these are quite uncomfortable to use.
All these incontinence products serve the same purpose though vary in absorbency, level of protection, durability, re-usability, ease of use and cost and comfort.
