0I'm not 100% sure, but my guess is that it's referring to "Depends" incontinence products (see 01a05000/ 02a00).02br

00"wear Depends under garments" means that Depends are worn under other garments, but I suspect it might be a mistake for "wear Depends undergarments" (i.e. Depends are a type of undergarment). Again

0 I have a friend, barely 63 years old, who returned from a short stay in Florida. He brough with him a humongous bottle of vodka from Costco. We asked how he wrapped in for checking on the plane, he answered, "with Depends". He had lots left over from a period of time he had to wear them after prostate surgery. Never throw anything away?? 0-
