I usually just use plastic pants over regular underwear.

Ashley StAngelo hi Ashley,
Plastic pants are basically underwear made of either rubber, plastic, PVC or vinyl. Since you say you are a heavy leaker, I'd suggest prevail overnight with plastic pants over them to keep them from leaking. You can try 2-3 regular underwear and plastic pants and see if that works for you. After all these years I've been using plastic pants, even on days I don't leak, I have become used to using them as regular underwear as well. It just became the norm for me I guess. I find them quite comfortable on cool days as they hold in the heat keeping that area warm on colder days. On hot days they can become too sweaty after an hour in them. I have tried the plastic pants from here and they were excessively stiff. I prefer from alltogetherenterprises based out of Utah or the bikini style from Haian out of China. Another company that is good is Rearz based out of Canada, they even have some with designs on them to make wearing plastic pants a little more bearable. Alltogetherenterprises and Haian brands can be found on Amazon fairly reasonably priced and some of the Rearz brand. I hope I helped you figure out an idea what step to take next in comfort wearing plastic pants. Feel free to let me know what works for you if you'd like.

Hi Ashley, I can totally understand your situation because I'm in the same BOAT.
I can tell you that for the price of the Better Dry Diapers they work very well for my Heavy Leakage and Large Voids at Night. The cost of each diaper is Approx. $1.60 when you buy a case. And if you would like a Free Sample of them you can ask NorthShore Care Supply and they would gladly send it to you. They also have a New MegaMax Diaper that works Great
I also use a Bed Pad on my bed just in case (washable kind) as for my daily use I wear the Seni Quatro as they Great and in my opinion, Betty Mills has a Great price on them.

Joseph O Paoletti I've used adult plastic briefs for many years and wellness superio are far and away the best. The bag is quite ugly but I'm not carrying it on street anymore.
-
Joseph O Paoletti I wear wellness superio for bowel bladde for a few years

-
Do the research they have a website and a humans answers the phone... ask your questions get your sample and good luck.. nothing more important or difficult for care givers than dealing with personal hygiene!
-
Joseph O Paoletti Having been changed and exposed for many years, at this point I am less embarassed by my nakedness than the diaper or mess. I don't care if people see me naked and I don't get hard during changes ever so that's not an issue either.

I don't know. The Walgreens Certainty was recommended to me by a relative who has taught end of life training for years.
-
Is the cloth like diapers better than the plastic back?
-
Tim Fraley cloth are ok and also a little more discreet. They do usually not make much noise. I personally usually go for plastic backed diapers though as they do seem to hold leaks better. The smooth backing feels nice to touch also.
-
Christopher Challe ok thanks
-
-
Find what comforts you and if need be add an ABD 5" x 9" extra absorbent sterile pad.
-
Gene Ledo hi gene, thanks for feedback how much are the abds pads and where do u get them?
-
-
Walgreen's Certainty work well.

Wings Quilted Overnight

-
It depends on the person I guess. I like Fit Right. They are inexpensive and work for me. I buy them at Betty Mills.
-
Nancy Cronk do they have samples
-

Hi All, we just recently launched a new line of heavy absorbency premium briefs, pads and underwear from Attends. You can find them here ! Use coupon code ForumAP10 on your first order and save 10% ! Cheers --Betty
-
😄Tena Women heavy protection super plus is excellent for absorbency.
-
Prevail. Good product for night too and good price
-
we started using Molicare for our son and they seem to work really well. They have worked suprisingly well over night too. but i agree that it does very by person and the amount of liquid that you need the diaper to absorb. Sometimes you have to change it up as the needs change.
-
SENI is an excellent brand for the elderly. They make different absorbency levels and the quality of material is far better than majority of the brands. As a caregiver I recommend it for night time use. It allows you and your loved one more rest due to less changes at name due to more absorption. Also it's more expensive... but worth it. Feel free to use a different brand for daytime.
-
Pamela King I use the Seni products during the Day and Better Dry at Night. Betty Mills don't sell the Better Dry Diapers but LLMedico ,XP Medical and NorthShore Care does they cost more but I use less and have very little leaks and use less of these products.
-
-
Also... the use of ointments are very important as well as a good brief for incontinence. You want to protect the skin as much as possible.
-
Pamela King The molicare line is undermined by the use of barrier creams. Tena is also.

-
I use tranquility topliner have not tried some of the other brands listed here but will look into them.
-
Hi Carol, I have found that for my daughter the Prevail Overnight Underwear with Maxsorb Technology works beautifully. They are very affordable and a superior product above any I've tried.
-
Tranquillity Overnight is by far the best IMO. They cost more but hold more fluid. You can pour a 24oz bottle of water no leaks and nearly dry to the touch.
-
Tranquility is the brand eyewear for adult diapers
-
There are many types of Adult diapers but you can go with McKesson Ultra Pull-Up Underwear, Heavy.
-
There are various types of adult diapers you can choose according your needs.
-
It depends what type or level of incontinence. For Me I'm dealing with quadriplegia and advanced stages of progressive MS. I have complete loss of bladder & bowel control. So We have to use the adult diaper briefs. Seems like the Tranquility ATN briefs & booster pads. As well as Tranquility bed pads work .
