A loved one has lost control of their bladder or bowel due to a health condition such as dementia or Alzheimer’s The sheer range of incontinence pads available can often be confusing to a new wearer, or a family carer helping a loved one fit incontinence products. But we’ve got some handy tips and information to help answer some of the more common questions you may have. What are incontinence pads made up of? Pads and pull-up pants use the same technology as babies' nappies and have a "hydrophobic" layer which draws urine away from the surface of the product, so your skin stays dry.

If you choose an incontinence pad with an absorbency level that is too high for your needs, this may cause unnecessary damage to your skin. Similarly, if the capacity of your incontinence pads are too small, then they won’t give you the absorbency you require and you risk potential leakages.
