NAD+
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a cellular coenzyme offered as part of a longevity and wellness protocol.
What is NAD+?
NAD+ is a coenzyme found in every cell that plays a role in energy metabolism and cellular repair. It is offered as an injection or infusion as part of a wellness and longevity protocol. NAD+ has not been approved by the FDA to prevent, treat or cure any disease, and it is provided only after review by a licensed provider.
Do not use NAD+ if…
- you have a known allergy to NAD+ or any of the ingredients

- your provider has advised against it based on your health history
Warnings & precautions
- When given by infusion or injection, NAD+ can cause temporary flushing, warmth, nausea, stomach cramps, chest or muscle tightness and lightheadedness. These effects are usually related to how quickly it is given and typically ease when the rate is slowed.
- Injection-site redness or soreness can occur.
- Tell your provider about any heart, liver or kidney conditions before starting.
Common side effects
Common effects include flushing, nausea, cramping, fatigue, headache and injection-site reactions.
Pregnancy & breastfeeding
