Best incontinence pads for men
Absorbency
When it comes to choosing the right product, considering the level of absorbency you need is a good place to start. From a slight occasional drip to full bladder empty and night-time wear, MoliCare® has a product with an absorbency level for you. MoliCare® uses a clear 2-to-10 ‘drop’ scale to help you identify the absorbency level of each product:
- 2–5 drops –light incontinence range – for minor drips during the day.
- 6–8 drops –moderate incontinence range – ideal for more frequent dribbles or longer wear time.
- 9–10 drops –incontinence products for heavy leakage – provides robust protection for substantial leaks, including overnight wear.
By selecting a product with the appropriate absorbency, you can stay comfortable, dry and confident throughout the day – or night.
