Poise Incontinence Pads, Original Design, Ultimate Absorbency, Long, 90 Count (2 Packs of 45)

Product Information

For individuals who have never used incontinence pads before, the product includes helpful instructions on how to apply the pad to your underwear so it remains secure.

Based on our testing, we found that the thinness of the pad did not work as a disadvantage. Instead, the pad has a high absorbency for its size while the sleek design makes it possible to wear the pad without seeing it through clothing. We also love that it offers odor protection from leakage. Keep in mind that the pad’s more discrete design might not protect the full length and width of your underwear. For people with severe leaks, continence clinics and district nurses can supply incontinence pads on the NHS, but these tend to be big and bulky. Using tampons for stress incontinence

When testing each type of incontinence pad, we first unwrapped the pad and placed it in a pair of cotton underwear. After application, we followed the pad’s absorbency instructions and poured the designated amount of liquid on top of the incontinence pad. Once the liquid was poured, we noted how fast the pad absorbed the liquid and whether or not all liquid was absorbed. After pouring liquid on the pad, we then tested how dry the pad remained by pressing our fingers into the pad.

Poise Ultimate Absorbency Regular Incontinence Pads hit the mark for what you need most in an incontinence pad: high absorbency, odor control, and a leak-proof design. During our test, we found the pad instantly absorbed the liquid as soon as the liquid touched the surface. This left the pad feeling completely dry to the touch, no matter how hard we pressed on the surface. We also found that after pouring apple cider on the pad and letting it sit for ten minutes the acid’s smell was completely masked. The Poise Ultra-Thin Incontinence Pads are an optimal choice to absorb occasional, light leaks and keep underwear dry. Don’t let this ultra-thin design fool you. We found that this pad could easily absorb 2.5 tablespoons of liquid without any issues. Although more liquid sat on the surface when we added more, eventually the pad absorbed that liquid as well. This pad is different from some other incontinence pads on the market in that it uses wings to attach the pad to the underwear. Although this helps secure the pad in place, we found that the wings could bunch around the underwear in certain places.We also liked the pad’s leak-proof design. Not only does the pad cover and protect underwear, but elevated side panels on the product also prevent any side leakage. Although the pad is bulkier than others on the market, we found that its absorbent design and ability to mask odors made it a top choice. Depending on the individual, the side panels might cause some chafing or irritation, but the design is otherwise fit for comfort and protects underwear from leakage. A variety of incontinence bedding is also available, such as washable bed pads that sit on top of the mattress and soak up any overnight leaks. The pads stay dry to the touch and they can be useful for trips away from home. Can I get incontinence products on the NHS? to 4.7 stars: These incontinence pads are excellent—they might have minor flaws, but we still recommend them. Despite the pad’s soft exterior, the material does pill if you rub it enough. Nonetheless, we found that the pad’s softness against the skin and high absorbency far exceed any pilling concerns.
