Is there a Poise® Pad for men?
All Poise® Pads are designed for women. For men seeking incontinence products, visit Depend® website to learn more about maximum bladder leakage protection from Depend® incontinence products specifically designed for both men and women.
Can I use Feminine Pads/Liners instead of Poise® to control my light bladder leakage symptoms since both products absorbs liquid?
No, you should not use them interchangeably. Because Feminine products are designed to absorb vaginal discharge and menstruation blood but not urine. Period Pads are not efficient in locking urine liquid and odor. Whereas Poise® products are specially designed to absorb urine. In fact, Poise® Liners and Pads are more absorbent than Feminine Liners and Pads. With the unique Aborb-Loc® core technology, our Poise® range is designed to eliminate urine odor, thus giving you the utmost discretion you desire.
I experience heavy light bladder leakage at night when I sleep. Can I use two Poise® Pads to double the absorbency?
We have the right overnight product for you - you can try the Poise® Extra Plus Pads, which is meant for Overnight use. Poise® Extra Plus Pads is 36.5cm long, meant to provide you the leakage protection you need when you sleep at night.
Where can I buy Poise® products?
Most Poise® products are available at your nearest hypermarkets, supermarkets, pharmacies or online retailers.
