There are so many brands and styles of protective underwear (pullups) and tab-style adult diapers (briefs) on the market that it's hard to pick and choose between them.

Depend® is still the mostwidely knownbrand of incontinence protection because it's advertised on TV and sold on grocery store shelves, but it's not the most absorbentoption. There are many hospital and specialty brands that offer much higher absorbency and quality at a lower price.

At Magic Medical, weoffer the most absorbent of the specialty brands that we know will provide you with maximum protection.

There are a few that stand above the rest in value, absorbency and comfort and have the highest recommendations from our customers.

First, the pullups:

They feature the patented Kufguard leg cuffs that channel fluids into the core and away from the leg openings. Odor reduction, neutralization of the pH in urine and the inhibition of bacteria growth are some of the benefits of all Tranquility products. The pullupsfithigher on the waist than other brands.

A wide range of sizes is available from X-Small through 2XL.

It's made with a high count of elastic threads to ensure a snug fit. The price isn't as high as it looks because there are more pullups in a case than the other brands, at 84 per case.
