NAD+

IM NAD+ boost for cellular energy — a shorter option than the full infusion.

5–10 minutes
Physician-supervised

Overview

An IM dose of NAD+ for patients who want the mitochondrial benefits between full IV infusions. Onset is slower than IV but avoids infusion time.

Key benefits

  • Mitochondrial energy
  • Cognitive clarity
  • Complements IV NAD+ protocol

How it works

A licensed clinician administers a single intramuscular injection (typically deltoid or gluteal). Most shots take under 10 minutes, including consultation.

Mechanism

Same as IV NAD+: mitochondrial electron transport, sirtuin activation, DNA repair.

Who is this for

  • Maintenance between NAD+ infusions
  • Time-constrained patients
  • Longevity patients

Considerations & safety

Rare injection-site discomfort. Coordinate with oncology if in active cancer treatment.
