What Are NAD+ Injections?

NAD+ injections deliver Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, a coenzyme found in every cell of your body, directly into your system through subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. NAD+ plays a critical role in hundreds of metabolic processes needed for life and optimal function.

The Science Behind NAD+

NAD+ serves as cellular fuel, helping convert the food you eat into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency your cells need to function. NAD+ levels naturally decline with age, contributing to decreased cellular function and many hallmarks of aging. Beyond energy production, NAD+ supports DNA repair mechanisms that help maintain genetic integrity. It also activates sirtuins, a family of proteins involved in cellular health, metabolism, and longevity.

As NAD+ levels decrease, cells become less efficient at repairing damage, producing energy, and maintaining optimal function. Injectable NAD+ bypasses the digestive system entirely, ensuring efficient absorption and allowing your body to replenish declining levels more effectively than oral supplements. This direct delivery method provides higher bioavailability, meaning more of the coenzyme reaches your cells where it's needed most.

Benefits of NAD+ Injections

NAD+ therapy offers a range of potential benefits that address both how you feel and how your body functions at the cellular level:

Boosted energy and stamina: By optimizing cellular energy production, NAD+ injections may help reduce fatigue and increase sustained energy throughout the day.
Improved mental clarity: Many patients report sharper focus, better concentration, and stronger cognitive function after NAD+ therapy.
Cellular repair and rejuvenation: NAD+ supports your body's natural DNA repair mechanisms, potentially slowing aspects of cellular aging.
Faster recovery: Athletes and active individuals may experience improved muscle and tissue repair and reduced inflammation after physical exertion.
Mood support: NAD+ supports neurotransmitter function, and some patients notice improvements in overall mood and sense of well-being.
Metabolic support: By improving mitochondrial function, NAD+ therapy may support healthy metabolism and weight management.

NAD+ Injections: Consultation and Treatment

Consultation

NAD+ therapy begins with a consultation at our Mount Airy office. During this appointment, a member of Dr. Cappuccino's team will discuss your current health status, energy levels, lifestyle factors, and wellness goals. We'll explain how NAD+ therapy works, what results you might expect, and answer any questions you have about the treatment process.

The cost of NAD+ injections varies based on your individualized treatment plan, including the recommended dosage and injection frequency for your specific needs. We'll provide transparent pricing during your consultation and discuss any package options that may offer value for ongoing therapy.

Treatment Protocol

NAD+ injection therapy typically follows a two-phase approach:

Loading Phase (Weeks 1-6): During the initial loading phase, you'll receive 1-2 injections per week to build up NAD+ levels in your system. This concentrated approach helps establish a foundation for cellular replenishment and allows you to begin experiencing the benefits of therapy more quickly.
Maintenance Phase (Ongoing): Once optimal levels are achieved, you'll transition to maintenance injections every 1-4 weeks, depending on your individual response and goals. Dr. Cappuccino's team will work with you to adjust the frequency as needed to maintain your results.

Each injection appointment is brief and convenient, typically taking just a few minutes. The injection is administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly by our trained medical staff in a comfortable clinical setting.

Recovery and Results Timeline

NAD+ injections require no recovery time, and you can return to your normal activities immediately following treatment. Some patients notice increased energy and mental clarity within the first few sessions, while others experience gradual improvements over the course of the loading phase.

Potential Side Effects: Most patients tolerate NAD+ injections well, with side effects typically being mild and temporary:

Slight discomfort, redness, or swelling at the injection site

These effects generally resolve quickly and diminish as your body adjusts to the therapy. Our team will monitor your progress and address any concerns throughout your treatment.

At what age should I consider starting NAD+ therapy?

While NAD+ levels begin declining in the mid-30s, there is no specific age requirement for starting therapy. During your consultation, Dr. Cappuccino’s team will determine whether NAD+ therapy aligns with your current health status and goals.

Will NAD+ injections interact with my current medications or supplements?

NAD+ is a naturally occurring coenzyme in the body, so interactions are uncommon. However, you should disclose all medications, supplements, and health conditions during your consultation to ensure safety and proper planning.

How do NAD+ injections compare to IV NAD+ infusions?

Both methods increase NAD+ levels, but they differ in convenience and experience. IV infusions typically take 2–4 hours and may cause more noticeable flushing or nausea during administration. Injections take only minutes, generally involve fewer side effects, and may be performed at home after proper training.
