Where Can I Buy Kotex?
Kotex products are widely available both online and in stores. You can find them on major e-commerce platforms, including here at medino Many online pharmacies and beauty retailers also stock a variety of Kotex pads, liners, and tampons.
What is Kotex?
Kotex is a well-known menstrual hygiene brand, offering products such as pads, tampons, and pantiliners. Owned by Kimberly-Clark, the brand has evolved to include modern designs and advanced absorbent technology.
Have Kotex Night Pads Been Discontinued?
Kotex Night Pads as a whole have not been discontinued. However, some specific versions—like certain ultra-thin overnight pads—may be harder to find. Most of the night pad range remains available, though stock can vary between retailers.
This is because Kimberly Clark have decided to re-brand and the re-release 'U by Kotex' is still yet to be readily available in the UK.
Are Kotex Pads Chemical Free?
Kotex pads are not completely chemical-free, but they are made without fragrances, lotions, elemental chlorine, pesticides, parabens, and latex. They are hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested, and free from heavy metals and PFAS.
What are The Alternatives?
Alternatives to Kotex include:
Reusable cloth pads made from cotton or bamboo.
Menstrual cups, which are reusable and eco-friendly.
Organic or chlorine-free pads from brands like Seventh Generation or L.
Period underwear for a reusable, all-in-one option.
What is the Difference Between the Older and New Versions of Kotex?
Older Kotex pads were thicker, with more basic absorbency. Newer versions feature CushionCore™ technology for faster absorption, extended coverage (especially for overnight protection), and cleaner ingredient profiles without harsh additives.
