• Do not use any cleansing wipes, moisturizing creams, lotions or oils on the penis prior to application.
• Do not use other products between Men’s Liberty Acute applications (i.e. cleansing or chlorhexidine wipes). Excess skin moisture caused by other incontinence products will interfere with Mens Liberty Acutes seal, shortening wear time.
• Do not connect to suction.

• The first application for each patient will last shorter than the subsequent applications of the product.
• You can expect the first application to last 6-12 hours and subsequent applications to last 24-48 hrs.
• This is due to the hydrocolloid material that absorbs underlying moisture in the skin.
