NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme essential to every cell in your body – powering energy production, DNA repair, metabolism, and the aging process. Levels decline significantly with age, contributing to fatigue, brain fog, slower recovery, and reduced resilience.

IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU

Who it’s for

  • Adults who want vitamins, minerals, amino acids or fluids given by IV or injection, after a medical screening.

What Is NAD+ IV Therapy?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme essential to every cell in your body — powering energy production, DNA repair, metabolism, and the aging process. Levels decline significantly with age, contributing to fatigue, brain fog, slower recovery, and reduced resilience.
NAD+ IV Therapy delivers this essential molecule directly into your bloodstream via intravenous infusion, allowing for maximum absorption and the deepest level of cellular replenishment.

What to Expect

Before your session, hydrate well and eat a nutritious meal. During infusion, you may feel a mild flush or warmth – normal and manageable by adjusting the drip rate. Many patients feel increased clarity within hours of treatment, with progressive improvements over a series.

Benefits

NAD+ IV vs. NAD+ Injections

IV Therapy

  • Intravenous - direct to bloodstream
  • Session: 1–3 hours
  • Higher dose capacity for deeper loading
  • Recommended for initial high-dose protocols

NAD+ Injections

  • Intramuscular - quick shot
  • Session: under 10 minutes
  • Ideal for maintenance between IVs
  • Great for busy schedules

Quick answers to questions you may have

How often should I do NAD+ IV?

For initial loading, we recommend 2–4 sessions over 2 weeks. Maintenance IVs every 4–8 weeks, supplemented with weekly or bi-weekly NAD+ injections, is a popular ongoing protocol.

SAFETY

Safety information

Read this before your treatment, and tell your provider about any condition or medicine it mentions.

Tell the nurse right away if you feel pain, swelling or burning at the IV site, shortness of breath, or chest discomfort during an infusion.

Who should not have it

  • People with kidney disease: kidney failure has been reported after IV vitamin C in people with a history of kidney disease.
  • People prone to kidney stones: the NCI says they should not be treated with IV vitamin C.
  • People with G6PD deficiency, an inherited condition: high doses of vitamin C may destroy red blood cells (hemolysis).
  • People with hemochromatosis (iron overload): high doses of vitamin C are not recommended.
  • For NAD+: pregnancy or breastfeeding. NAD+ has not been studied in either.
  • For NAD+: kidney disease, liver disease or active cancer. Safety information in these conditions is very limited, so tell your provider first.
  • For NAD+: tell your provider about every medicine you take. How NAD+ interacts with other medicines has not been well studied.

Common side effects

  • IV vitamin C has caused very few side effects in clinical trials (NCI).
  • For NAD+ by IV: flushing, nausea, belly discomfort or cramping, and chest pressure, more likely when the drip runs faster.
  • For NAD+ injections: pain, discomfort or burning where the shot is given.

Serious risks

  • Kidney failure in people with a history of kidney disease.
  • Hemolysis (destruction of red blood cells) with high doses in G6PD deficiency.
  • Fluid overload, reported in one study of IV vitamin C.
  • For NAD+: severe chills, shaking and vomiting have been reported when an NAD+ product was contaminated during compounding (FDA).
