Important Tips

  • If a soiled brief is being replaced, remove it and clean your groin and buttocks thoroughly.
  • Dispose of soiled briefs in a sanitary manner. Do not flush.
  • Wash hands after handling soiled briefs.
  • Do not get powder, lotion or oil on adhesive strip. These substances may cause the strip not to stick properly.
  • Seek professional advice from your physician or health care professional if you or someone you care for is experiencing bladder control problems.

To Put DEPEND® Fitted Maximum Protection On While Lying Down

Unfold a fresh brief.

Identify the inside and outside of the product.

  • The inside of a DEPEND® Fitted Maximum Protection (the side that is placed against your skin) is a white absorbent layer.
  • The outside has a moisture-proof outer cover with a wetness indicator.

Identify the front and back of the product.

  • The back of the brief has six refastenable tapes-three on each side flap.
  • The flaps on the front of the brief do not have tapes.

Move onto your side.

Position the back of the brief (the end with the tape tabs) next to your buttocks with the flaps folded as shown. Make sure the white absorbant layer is facing up, with the back of the brief placed toward the head of the bed.

Unfold the flaps on the side of the brief farthest from your body.

Gently roll over the brief, just far enough to unfold the other back flaps.

Roll onto your back on the center of the brief.

Bring the front of the brief up between your legs. The front and back edges of the brief should be pulled to equal heights on the front and back of your waistline.

Adjust the brief to fit closely by pulling it snugly into your groin. Fasten the tape tab onto the front flaps.

Adjust the brief for a close and comfortable fit.

  • Be sure to move any folds of skin-especially on your inner thigh-to prevent leaking and chafing.
  • Adjust fit by repositioning tape tabs.
