NAD+ Injections After 60: What the Evidence Shows

NAD+ after 60 · checked 8 November 2026

Short answer: NAD+ is a molecule every cell uses to turn food into energy, and some studies suggest levels fall with age. Supplements that raise it do raise blood levels, but trials in older adults haven't shown clear benefits, and there are no outcome trials of NAD+ injections. If you try it, do so with a physician and realistic expectations.

What NAD+ is

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme that helps cells run the chemical reactions behind energy metabolism. Enzymes involved in cell repair and signalling also use it. Reviews describe NAD+ levels falling with age, but much of that evidence comes from animals, and human studies are small and don't all agree.

What the human evidence shows

Oral precursors. Nicotinamide riboside and NMN raise NAD+ in the blood. In a 2018 trial of 24 adults aged 55 to 79, six weeks of nicotinamide riboside was well tolerated and raised NAD+. A 2021 NMN trial in 25 women with prediabetes improved muscle insulin sensitivity but not body composition or blood pressure.
Older adults. A 2025 analysis of 10 placebo-controlled trials in adults aged 60 and over found no significant effect on muscle mass or function.
Infusions and injections. Small studies have measured how the body handles IV NAD+, but none has tested clinical outcomes, and there are no published human studies of injections under the skin or into muscle.

Status and safety

Not FDA-approved. NAD+ isn't approved for any use. It's compounded by licensed pharmacies, and FDA lists it among bulk substances still under evaluation for compounding.
Side effects. With IV infusions, nausea, stomach cramps, headache, anxiety, chest pressure and a faster heart rate have been reported, usually easing when the infusion slows or stops. Published data on injections are limited.
Coverage. Medicare and most insurers don't pay for NAD+ for general wellness; it's cash-pay. On Medicare and wondering about GLP-1s? See what Medicare covers.

Common questions

Does NAD+ slow or reverse ageing?

There's no good human evidence that NAD+ injections slow or reverse ageing. Supplements that raise NAD+ do raise blood levels, but trials in older adults haven't shown clear benefits for outcomes such as muscle mass or strength.

Is NAD+ FDA-approved?

No. NAD+ isn't FDA-approved for any use. It's available as a compounded medication, and FDA lists it among bulk substances it is still evaluating for compounding.

What are the side effects of NAD+?

Most published reports come from IV infusions, where nausea, stomach cramps, headache, anxiety, chest pressure and a faster heart rate have been reported, usually easing when the infusion slows or stops. Published data on injections under the skin or into muscle are limited.

Does Medicare cover NAD+ injections?
