Urinary incontinence is a condition that can affect people of all ages, though it is especially common in older adults. With urinary incontinence, an individual loses control of their bladder, leading to the involuntary release of urine.

Thankfully, there are plenty of products available that can make it much easier to live with urinary incontinence. Read on to learn about some of the urological supplies we offer at Mark Drug Medical Supply, then come shop with us today in Wheeling, IL. We welcome customers from all over the North Shore area.

External catheters, also known as condom catheters, are worn outside the body. These devices are primarily designed to accommodate male anatomy, but there are external urinary collection devices available for women, too. External catheters are easy to use and comfortable, and they are less likely than indwelling catheters to cause a urinary tract infection.

Urinary drainage bags are used to collect urine from an indwelling catheter or external catheter. They come with sturdy plastic tubing that allows the urine to flow smoothly from the catheter into the bag. Urinary drainage bags come in various sizes to meet every need, and they are designed to be convenient and discreet.

Nighttime urinary drainage bags are designed to provide extra capacity and convenience while sleeping. They also feature anti-leak technology and special valves that prevent urine from flowing back up the catheter. When you are using a nighttime urinary drainage bag, you can rest assured that your incontinence will not interfere with a good night’s sleep.

If you need incontinence support when you are out and about, you might want to consider using a leg bag holder. These devices are designed to discreetly hold the urinary drainage bag in place. They are usually worn around the thigh, under the clothes. When you have a leg bag holder, you can use your catheter as you go about your daily routines.
