The use of commonly available bladder control pads inside a protective underwear or tabbed brief will actually prevent absorption within the brief or protective underwear. This will cause leakage in the groin area.
It is important to note that Bladder Control Pads are designed to be worn inside of regular underwear and contain a plastic backing. They are not to be used with another absorbent product.
There are specially designed flow-through Booster Pads which may enhance the absorbency of a product.
Keep in mind that in order for an incontinence product to absorb, the absorbent surface of the product must be in contact with fluid.
