Choosing the right adult diaper is very important — especially for seniors, bedridden patients, or people with incontinence. The right diaper helps prevent leakage, skin irritation, and pressure sores.
Choose Based on “Usage Type”
| Type | Suitable For | Advantages | Things to Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tape-type (with adhesive tabs) | Bedridden users or those with limited mobility | Easy for caregivers to put on and change | Less breathable than pull-up types |
| Pull-up type (pants style) | Active users who can move around | Easy to wear like underwear, convenient for self-use | Usually more expensive |
| Insert pad / booster pad | To be used with washable briefs or for daytime use | Economical and lightweight | Low absorbency, not ideal for nighttime use |
Choose Based on “Absorbency Level”
| Absorbency | Best For | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Light | Occasional or daytime use | Pads or ultra-thin pull-ups |
| Moderate | Frequent urination or daytime use | Standard pull-ups |
| Heavy / Night Use | Overnight or bedridden users | High-absorbency tape or pull-up type |
💡 Look for the “droplet icons” on the package — more drops = higher absorbency.
Choose the Right “Size”
-
Measure both waist and hip circumference (use the larger number).
-
Each brand’s sizing may differ — e.g., M in one brand = L in another.
-
Too tight → causes rashes and discomfort.
-
Too loose → may lead to leakage.
Check “Material & Breathability”
-
Choose soft, quick-absorbing, and dry-feel materials.
-
Prefer diapers with breathable side panels to prevent heat and moisture buildup.
-
Avoid plastic-backed types that trap heat and cause skin irritation.
Choose Based on “Gender” (for gender-specific models)
-
Male type → extra absorbent area in the front.
-
Female type → thicker absorbent pad in the middle to back.
Brand Selection Tips
-
Start with a small pack to test comfort and fit.
-
Popular brands include:
Certainty, Lifree, Tena, Dr.Klean, MamyPoko Adult, Absorba, D-Nee Adult -
For bedridden users, look for models with odor control and high breathability.
Usage Tips
-
Change every 4–6 hours or whenever it’s wet.
-
Clean the skin before each change.
-
Use barrier cream to prevent rashes or pressure sores.
-
Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
