Last Updated: March 20, 2024

If you’re an adult who suffers from incontinence, there’s no need to feel embarrassed. Adult diapers are a great solution for managing overnight leaks. But with so many different nighttime incontinence products on the market, how do you know which one is best for your needs?

In this article, we’ll cover everything you need to know about overnight adult diapers: what they are and how they work, what sets them apart from day time diapers, and the top five recommended options of adult disposable underwear for night time use.

What are the best overnight adult diapers?

Tranquility Premium OverNight Disposable Absorbent Underwear

Overnight adult diapers are a must for anyone who has trouble staying dry at night. Tranquility® Premium OverNight™ Underwear are pull up style overnight diapers for urinary and/or bowel incontinence. These give you maximum absorbency for leak-free nights. It starts with unique Kufguards® (leg cuffs) that guide urine to the super absorbent core, even when you are lying down.

Fluid is quickly absorbed away from the skin and into the carefully designed premium absorbent core, which holds and locks in up to 34 oz of urine for guaranteed overnight protection and prevention of bacterial growth.

The fluid stays in the thick core and will not be squeezed out, even if you move around in your sleep – keeping you and your sheets dry. The wetness indicator changes color so you know when a change is needed.

Using fully breathable technology, the breathable fabric sides also help keep your skin dry by allowing heat and humidity to escape and air to flow in and out. Your premium sleep experience also includes cloth like backing material that is gentle against your skin and quiet when you move, with a moisture-proof backing that stops nighttime leaks.

Tranquility ATN (All-Through-The-Night) Disposable Brief

What are the best overnight diapers? The Tranquility® Premium ATN™ (All-Through-the-Night) Tab Style Briefs are one of the best adult diapers on the market.

These briefs give you freedom and security for excellent overnight incontinence protection. The plastic-backed material gives you confidence that you will have skin dryness and bedding will stay dry (no more morning-time mess!).

They work for bowel incontinence and urinary incontinence, and they can handle multiple voids. Unique Kufguards® guide urine to the premium superabsorbent core, which holds and locks in up to 34 oz of fluid. They offer maximum protection for overnight use.

These adult briefs feature a full-fit core that extends over your hips for added front and back protection – great if you are a side-sleeper. Soft leg guards stop leaks to give you a secure fit around your legs, while the adjustable tab style allows for the brief to fit to your exact waist size.

Tranquility Smartcore Disposable Brief

Tranquility® SmartCore® Disposable Briefs maintain an ideal microclimate for preserving skin integrity (perfect for those with skin sensitivity). They can be refastened with velcro-like closures, allowing wearers or caretakers to check the incontinence product, making them one of the best nighttime diapers.

The high-capacity absorbent peach core will absorb urine and remains effective up to 6-8 hours. The core neutralizes urine ph which provides odor protection.

Breathable sides eliminate heat and moisture buildup, helping to keep skin cool and retain a normal skin temperature. Micro-hook closure tabs grip the soft, clothlike outer layer to securely fasten the brief and allow for multiple openings. Kufguards® (inner leg cuffs) channel fluids into the core, helping to contain high volume urge episodes and bowel incontinence.

The dual wetness indicator turns from yellow to blue when moisture is present, eliminating unnecessary changes and reducing overall costs.

These briefs are available in five color-coded sizes. Smartcore can also be used for fecal incontinence.

Tranquility® Premium TopLiner® Booster Pads

While it’s not technically an overnight diaper, this diaper pad can help extend the life of night diapers significantly. The Tranquility® Premium TopLiner® Booster Pad extends the wear time of incontinence garments, so you can go longer between changes. Designed to absorb their stated capacity before allowing additional fluid to pass through to the primary garment.

This makes them ideal for pairing with disposable underwear or adult diapers, but should not be worn in standard underwear. Intended to be flexible so you can position the diaper pad in between leg openings and adjust where you need extra protection; for women, this may be more toward the bottom, while for men, it may be more toward the front.

An adhesive strip keeps the pad in place. Boosters can be folded and even doubled for added protection in nighttime diapers, but should not be cut.

Tranquility® AIR-Plus™ Breathable Underpads

Besides overnight diapers, its worth adding other overnight incontinence products to your nighttime routine to guarentee comfort and maximum protection. One of those overnight incontinence products we love are Tranquility® AIR-Plus™ Breathable Underpads which add extra protection to mattresses in the instance that an adult diaper would leak.

The microporous backsheet allows heat, air and water vapor to escape, improving air circulation and supporting optimal skin integrity while preserving mattress and bed dryness.

The soft, consistently smooth, even surface minimizes pressure points and shear/friction concerns. The underpads have a white backsheet with peach imprint that clearly indicates which side goes down against the bed to eliminate placement confusion. PowerSorb® quick-wicking absorbent layer quickly wicks and locks fluid away, helping to maintain skin integrity and reduce odor.
