Reconstitution
Vial Size Bacteriostatic Water Concentration 100mg Dose → Draw To
500 mg Add 2 mL 2.5 mg per unit 40 units on the syringe
1000 mg Add 4 mL 2.5 mg per unit 40 units on the syringe
Quick reference: 50mg = 20 units | 100mg = 40 units | 250mg = 100 units (both vial sizes)
Tilt the vial and inject bacteriostatic water slowly down the glass wall. Swirl gently until dissolved — do not shake. Refrigerate immediately after mixing.

Note: water amounts vary by compound — always follow the reconstitution amounts listed in the table above for NAD+.

How to Inject
Method
SubQ or IM
SubQ: belly fat | IM: outer thigh
Needle Angle
45° SubQ / 90° IM
Pinch skin for SubQ; relax muscle for IM
Preferred Sites
Belly fat or outer thigh
Rotate sites daily
Timing — Important
Morning only
NAD+ is energizing — injecting at night may disrupt sleep

Your Protocol
Slow & Steady
50 mg
per day
Best For First-time injectable NAD+ users, gentle cellular energy boost
Draw Amount 50mg → draw to 20 units
(both vial sizes)
Protocol 50mg/day — maintain throughout
Suggested
100 mg
per day
Best For Most users — strong cellular effects, energy, mental clarity, and metabolic support
Draw Amount 100mg → draw to 40 units
(both vial sizes)
Titration Wk 1: 50mg/day → Wk 2+: 100mg/day
Aggressive but Safe
250 mg
per day
✓ Used by experienced biohackers — well-tolerated in community
Best For Experienced users, deep cellular repair, longevity optimization
Draw Amount 250mg → draw to 100 units
(both vial sizes)

Do
  • Inject in the morning — it's stimulating and may affect sleep if dosed late
  • Stay hydrated — NAD+ supports increased cellular metabolism
  • Pair with resveratrol or NMN for potential synergistic longevity effects
  • Common: 5 days on, 2 days off cycle
Don't
  • Inject at night — too energizing, will likely disrupt sleep
  • Expect effects to be dramatic at first — they build over time
  • Shake the vial — swirl gently only
  • Store at room temperature after reconstitution
