What Are Pull Up Pants?

Disposable incontinence pants are a great product for use with light to moderate urinary and faecal incontinence. With the convenience of looking and feeling like regular underwear, incontinence pants are probably the most popular disposable incontinence product. They 'pull up' just like normal underwear, and can pull off or be torn off at the sides for ease of changing.

The pad is built into the product, which has an elasticated waist (A) to help move as you move, and stay snugly in place, improving comfort for the wearer.

Pull up incontinence pants come in a range of sizes to fit all different body shapes as well as a range of absorbency levels so you can find one to best suit your needs.

Are incontinence pants better than pads?

Are incontinence pants better than pads?

Whether incontinence pants or pads are better depends on your needs and lifestyle. Incontinence pants can be more effective if you have moderate to heavy incontinence, as they provide all-around coverage and protection.

Pads might be preferred if you have lighter incontinence or value the flexibility to use them with your regular underwear.

Incontinence pants can offer more security and are typically better for overnight use or if you’re active, as they are less likely to shift out of place.
