Abena BOOST Fluff Incontinence Pads - No Barrier/Flow-Through, (Sizes Normal To Extra Large) Extra Large, 20 Count

Great to use as a booster with pull-ups. Has high volume absorption. Pad is actually very long and wide, though it conforms to the narrowest part between legs, so I never find the width a problem. The material of the pad is so soft and cottony, it’s so nice and natural! I position it in my Tena Overnight pull-ups before bed. Any liquid absorbed by the pad will go straight through to the pull-up because there’s no barrier, which is really reassuring, at night or when you know you’ll be sitting for a long time. I bought these by accident on Amazon, but now I am hooked! They’re not cheap which is why I use only one or two a day. I have such serious leakage I always need a booster. The quality of these is remarkable.

If you are already using an overnight adult diaper but still getting leaks, you need a booster pad. A booster pad is inserted into a diaper to add absorbency and get you through the night dry. These are the king of booster pads. They are long, thick and very absorbent. They fill to capacity and then allow the urine to flow through into the absorbent garment they are placed inside, either an adult diaper or disposable underwear. They do not have a plastic backing, so they can't be used alone, they must be used with a host absorbent garment. They fit perfectly between the leak guards of Abena M4 or L4 diapers and stay in place without the need for adhesive strips. This makes them easy to change without taking the diaper off or tearing the inner lining. I use them at night occasionally when I think I will be wetting more heavily or sleeping more deeply. I have also used them on long plane trips, but they do add alot of bulk and you need to wear pants that can accommodate the added thickness. Overall, a great product to add absorbency to your diaper and confidence to your life!

My mom was put on medication that increased her urine output. Every morning her diaper was disintegrating from the liquid, the puppy pads, bed pad and bed sheet were soaked through. Happily, this booster pad took care of the excess liquid. It is highly absorbent and my mom wakes up in a dry bed. These were the first booster pads we used and I thought the lack of an adhesive strip wouldn’t be be a problem, but it is. The booster pad moves around while putting the diaper on and while the person sleeps. It’s also more difficult than I thought to put on the diaper with a loose booster pad. I’m really impressed with this pad’s absorbency but will only use ones with adhesive from now on.

Simply put, without being too graphic, adult diaps have their limitations. And different levels of incontinence are handled differently by different individuals. Please not to be too graphic, but if you are a "trickler", you wont have many problems. If you have any measure of control left at all, you will to some degree unconsciously attempt to hold, then lose control of that hold. Thats where a significant volume released in a short period can overwhealm the seals of even a very absorbant Diap. Enter, the Abena Abri-Let Maxi Stuffer. I will keep it simple now. Unlike department store stuffers, these stuffers are long and wide, and designed, depending on your body shape, to cover all the way from front top, all the way around to the back if not to the back top if you are small. That right there is a big bonus. These are simply designed to wick and absorb at the same time. The number one complaint people have is that they need to chance because the "front" is full, and the padding in the back is unused, totally dry, and wasted. These stuffers absorb and wick fluid evenly thru the padding of the entire diaper. Yes. A pack of these costs as much as a pack of diaps. But do the math. You get 40 of these in a pack, and 12 or 16 diaps in a pack. One pack of these will reinforce several packs of diaps. And using one of these will, and I'm not making this up, double the duration of time before you need to chance, as well as increase the volume able to be absorbed. You'll go through half the diapers, for the price of one extra pack. This is one instance where by spending money, you will literally save money. Oh, and be more comfortable too.

While these are quite large and absorbent they are difficult to place and adjust in a pullup because there is not tape to keep in place like other booster pads. I think it would work quite well for a caregiver who changes a person using diapers with tabs so the booster can just be place where it is needed and then the diaper secured.

Nice, thick pads! But know there isn't any adhesive on them.

Gotta read the description carefully. These have no adhesive strip so what holds them in place? I'm guessing nothing. I would return these as "defective" but it's too much of a hassle. Maybe I can use them to sop up spills in the garage or something.

My mom became VERY incontinent due to spinal stenosis that caused nerve damage impacting her bladder signals. Initially, I discovered she was using period pads and having multiple "wardrobe changes" every day to to leaking. So we moved to actual bladder pads...that wasn't enough. The regular OTC Depends that look like women's underwear didn't cut it. I went online to seek more heavy duty options. Found some overnight briefs (pull ups) and that was moving us in the right direction, but still, she had bad breakthrough leaks. I remembered something I had used with my son when he was little and a heavy nighttime wetter...they were called "diaper doublers" and looked like a long old-fashioned sanitary pad (sans any adhesive). Then the hunt to find them for adults...and I did. She would like up three of these inside her overnight pull-up to get the coverage she needed (night and day). She did say that with that many, she sometimes had a sore crotch or felt like she was riding a pony. But...almost no more wardrobe changes...although she did have to be awakened for a change in the night to avoid wet everything. I don't know what people usually do when incontinence gets to this level. I was hard. But with these booster pads (which like I said, don't have any adhesive so they are simply added absorbancy inside a brief), it saved us money. The booster pads are less expensive than the briefs. And often, during the day, she could just pull out and change the pads that were wet and not have to change the brief. That many brief changes in a day (which requires removal of pants...or a wardrobe change...on someone with a leg brace and always shoes that would also have to come off), was a time saver as well. If you have any questions or I wasn't clear, let me know.
