My husband has dementia and often experiences incontinence (both urine and stool). He desperately needs pull-ups that are more absorbent.

I am using a very good PeapodMat for the bed as well as waterproof mattress covers. I see lots of ones that are advertised to be super absorbent but I know it's not a guarantee. Does anyone have a tried and true brand that you could suggest?

MG is referring to booster pads placed into an inconvenience brief to increase the absorbent

No briefs or pads are going to be that great, and your husband needs to be changed frequently, even during the night at least once. There is no tried and true brand that works for everyone, it's trial and error, along with frequent changes that work best.

Good luck.

I have seen some products that are like sanitary pads for women but are added to men's diapers for extra protection overnight.
