Conveen® Optima offers a reliable and discreet option for male urinary incontinence

This article is sponsored by Coloplast.

Men who experience urinary incontinence, or the accidental leakage of urine, are often plagued with embarrassment and frustration over their condition. Urinary leakage or "dribbling" is unpredictable and the ability to choose a dependable product is critical. Often, the first "go-to" product is absorbent pads or diapers, however there are other options available that may prove to be more successful.

Male external catheters (also known as condom catheters or urisheaths), used with a urine collection bag, offer a comfortable and discreet method of managing male urinary incontinence.

 

A customized incontinence solution

Conveen by Coloplast allows you to customize a solution to meet your specific needs and lifestyle. Conveen Optima is a male external catheter suitable for light to severe incontinence and may be worn up to 24 hours. The sheath is self-adhesive for ease of use and to protect against leakage. Application and removal are easy, with the help of the double grip-strip and balanced adhesive. Because a secure fit (circumference and length) is critical to success with male external catheters, Coloplast offers Optima in several sizes.

  • Reliable and discreet
  • Customizable to your needs
  • An alternative to absorbents or diapers

Allegro Medical and Coloplast have partnered to offer you this truly unique product. For more information about Conveen Optima, click here. To place an order, visit AllegroMedical.com.
