What Are Adult Diapers?
Unlike incontinence pads or pull-on incontinence underwear, incontinence briefs are unisex, tab-style briefs fit for those with more severe urinary incontinence or fecal incontinence.
These discreet, disposable diapers are equipped with odor control and maximum absorbency for excellent incontinence protection while still being breathable to keep the wearer comfortable and protect against skin irritation, such as diaper rash.
Adult Diaper Features
It’s important to find the perfect adult brief for you or your loved one to avoid issues like leakage or irritation. When choosing your product, consider the absorbency level and size needed to fit your unique incontinence needs.
Adult diapers are made with a number of features that make them an ideal choice for people who need maximum leakage protection.
Size Choice
Size Choice
The right-sized adult diaper for you will feel comfortable while staying in place and prevent any leaks. It’s important to understand the different sizes available and how to choose the best one for your needs.
Our Adult Diaper Sizes:
- Small
- Medium
- Large
- XL
- 2XL
- 3XL
Each size of adult diaper comes with the absorbency level you choose; the absorbency level does not increase when you go up a size, and it does not decrease when you drop down a size.
