The first area overlaps at least partially with an excretory orifice contact area of the top sheet that is configured to contact with the excretory orifice of the wearer. The second area is arranged more to a rear side in a lengthwise direction of the absorbent article than is the first area. A basis weight of the blood lubricity-imparting agent in the first area is higher than that of the blood lubricity-imparting agent in the second area.

Absorbent article with blood slipping agent-containing regions

The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions for inducing bone and/or cartilage anabolism, which comprises as an active ingredient a compound represented by formula (1) below and a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof: wherein R, R, R, and Rare as defined in the claims.

Hydantoin derivative-containing pharmaceutical composition

This absorbent article has sufficient pliability even when an absorbent body is bonded to a transport material, a wrap material, etc., and is pleasant to wear. In this absorbent article (), an absorbent body () includes at least a hydrophilic fiber-containing hydrophilic fiber layer () having multiple non-through slits (), and in the surface opposite of the surface having the slits (), the hydrophilic fiber layer () has multiple recesses () in positions corresponding to the multiple non-through slits () in the thickness direction of the absorbent article ().

An object of the disclosure is to provide an absorbent article without a sticky feel on the top sheet and with a smooth top sheet, even after highly viscous menstrual blood has been absorbed. An absorbent article comprising a liquid-permeable top sheet, an absorbent body, a liquid-impermeable back sheet, and a second sheet between the liquid-permeable top sheet and the absorbent body, wherein the top sheet and the second sheet comprise a blood modifying agent with an IOB of 0.00-0.60, a melting point of no higher than 45&#xb0; C., and a water solubility of 0.00-0.05 g in 100 g of water at 25&#xb0; C.

An individually packaged absorbent article has a pair of flaps for securing the absorbent article to clothing of a wearer. The absorbent article is folded multiple times along multiple folding axes such that the pair of flaps is folded over a liquid-permeable top sheet and the top sheet faces inward. The top sheet has a blood lubricating agent containing region, which contains a predetermined blood lubricating agent, in an area which overlaps with the pair of flaps in the thickness direction of the absorbent article. Moreover, the absorbent article is provided with a spacer for forming a space between the pair of flaps and the blood lubricating agent containing region of the top sheet.

An absorbent article has a lengthwise direction and a widthwise direction. The absorbent article includes a body section provided with a liquid-permeable top sheet on a skin-side, a liquid-impermeable backsheet on a garment-side, and a liquid-holding absorbent body positioned between the top sheet and the backsheet; and wing sections extending outwardly from both side-edges of the body section in the widthwise direction. A surface of the wing sections on the skin-side is formed by the top sheet or from side sheets positioned on both sides in the widthwise direction of the top sheet. Furthermore, the surface of the wing sections on the skin-side includes a plurality of bending parts extending non-continuously in the lengthwise direction, arranged in the widthwise direction, and having a substantially U-shaped cross-sectional shape in the widthwise direction.

Absorbent article having bent sections

The absorbent article of the present invention comprises: a liquid-pervious surface sheet, a liquid-impervious backside sheet provided at the position opposing said surface sheet, and an absorption body provided between said surface sheet and said backside sheet, wherein the absorbent article comprises an endless compressed groove, surrounding a central part of said absorbent article, which is formed in said surface sheet and said absorption body in the thickness direction, and a plurality of concave parts, provided inside and outside said compressed groove, which are formed in said surface sheet and said absorption body in the thickness direction, and an uncompressed region bordering inner and outer edges of the compressed groove, wherein the closest distance between said compressed groove and the nearest concave parts is greater than the distance between adjacent ones of those same concave parts.

Absorbent article and production method thereof
