| Field | Last updated |
|---|---|
| Aliases | Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, NAD, beta-NAD, Coenzyme I |
| Category | Longevity |
| Formula | C₂₁H₂₇N₇O₁₄P₂ |
| Molecular weight | 663.43 Da |
| Half-life | minutes (IV infusion); rapid metabolic turnover |
| Mechanism (summary) | NAD+ is a coenzyme — not a peptide. It is central to redox metabolism and serves as a substrate for enzymes tied to DNA repair, stress responses, and aging biology, including PARPs and sirtuins. Included here for completeness from the source dossier. The "longevity" reputation is well ahead of the controlled clinical evidence. |
| Dosing notes | No consensus direct-NAD+ human wellness dose is both standardized and strongly evidence-based. Most higher-quality human data still concern oral precursors (NR, NMN, NAM) rather than infused NAD+ itself. |
| Storage |
|---|
For research-grade NAD+, supplier and reagent data commonly specify -20°C storage for powder and aqueous stock solutions. Finished IV-clinic preparations should follow the pharmacy's labeling. |
