NAD+ 500mg Dosage Protocol
Preparation, measurement, commonly documented protocol ranges, and storage for a NAD+ 500mg vial.
1. Preparation and Measurement
NAD+ 500mg With 2mL of Diluent
Add 2mL of bacteriostatic water to the vial. The resulting concentration is 250mg/mL. On a U-100 syringe, each unit contains 2.5mg.
Preparation
- Draw 2mL of bacteriostatic water using sterile equipment.
- Let the liquid run slowly down the inside wall of the vial.
- Gently swirl until dissolved. Do not shake.
- Label with the preparation date and refrigerate.
Check the calculation with the peptide calculator.
2. Commonly Documented Schedule
Route commonly described: subcutaneous in circulated vial protocols. Frequency: once daily.
| Period | Documented amount | Measurement |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | 50mg once daily | 0.2mL / 20 units |
| Week 2 | 75mg once daily | 0.3mL / 30 units |
| Weeks 3-4 | 100mg once daily | 0.4mL / 40 units |
Vial estimate: One 500mg vial contains approximately 10 administrations at the first listed amount or 5 at the final listed amount.
Practical Notes
- The table applies only to this vial prepared with exactly 2mL.
- Record the amount, date, and preparation used.
3. Supplies Needed
- NAD+ 500mg vial.
- 2mL of bacteriostatic water per vial.
- Sterile U-100 syringes.
- Alcohol swabs.
- Sharps container.
4. Storage and Handling
- Keep unopened vials cool, dry, dark, and protected from moisture.
- After preparation, refrigerate at 2-8 degrees C.
- Protect from light and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- Do not use material with particles, discoloration, or a damaged seal.
5. Research Context
NAD+ is a central metabolic cofactor. Direct human studies have primarily examined intravenous infusion and metabolite handling, not the subcutaneous convention shown here.
Evidence for injected NAD+ remains limited, and published intravenous findings cannot validate a different route, concentration, or schedule.
