   At this point I'd like to give the web addresses for the Secure X-Plus briefs,the Unique brief and the Eurobrief in case anybody is interested in purchasing these briefs.The Secure X-Plus briefs are sold by two companies.G.Hirsch and company is one place that sells them.Their web address is www.ghirschco.com.The other place that sells these briefs is Secure Personal Care.Their web address is www.securepersonalcare.com. The Eurobrief is sold by Mediprime.Their web address is www.mediprime.com.Finally the Unique Brief is sold by First Wellness.Their web address is www.uniquebrief.com.

  When shopping for disposable briefs it's important to remember that some companies make two styles of disposable diapers-one with a plastic outer cover and one with a cloth like outer covering. Some people feel that the diapers with the plastic outer covering offer better protection and are more comfortable whereas other swear by the diapers with the cloth like cover. Tena I believe just makes diapers with a cloth like outer cover. Abena make diapers with both a plastic outer covering and a cloth like outer cover. Molicare makes diapers with a plastic outer covering-I'm not sure if they also make a diaper with a cloth like outer cover. Molicare make different lines of diapers. The most absorbent of these is the Super Plus Fitted Briefs. Out of all the Molicare diapers these are presumably the best to use for heavy incontinence such as bed-wetting. They have a plastic outer cover and extra padding in both the front and rear wings for increased protection and comfort.

  Regarding using disposable diapers with either a cloth like or plastic outer covering I would ask the company that sells both kinds to send you a sample of each in order to determine what works best for you. You can get the Tranquility from HDIS .You can get the Molicare Super Plus briefs from both XP Medical and ABAIP. In addition you can purchase Molicare briefs from HDIS but they don't appear to carry the Super Plus briefs-I was on their website recently and I just saw the Molicare Super and the original Molicare. Although these are good from what I hear they're not as absorbent as the Molicare Super Plus briefs. You might want to contact them and see if they can special order the Super Plus briefs from the manufacturer or if they plan on carrying the Super Plus briefs in the future.

  Other brands of disposable briefs include Wings by Kendall,Prevail by First Quality,Whitestone,Dignity,At Ease, Attends, and Depends but I've heard mixed reviews about some of these brands. It would be a good idea to contact the companies and see if they can provide samples. HDIS has a brief sample pack-I believe it's $9.95 for the pack. In addition you can buy diaper doublers known as booster pads,liners,and diaper inserts to put in disposable diapers to make them more absorbent. They also make booster pads for cloth diapers and some people purchase baby cloth diapers from places such as Walmart and Target to put in their adult cloth diapers to increase absorbency. Diaper pins(which are referred to as safety pins) and diaper rash ointment can also be purchased from these stores.
