Plainly

What this site is, and what it is not.

We do

  • Summarise what published research and UK regulators say about NAD+, with a source for every claim
  • Say plainly where evidence is missing, for example "we found no trials of injected NAD+ for this"
  • List 92 UK clinics that mention NAD+ injections or IV on their own websites, each checked against that website
  • Show prices exactly as clinics displayed them on 11 November 2026, with the number of prices behind every statistic
  • Show a link to the CQC register only where our check found a high-confidence match

We do not

  • Provide, sell or give treatment
  • Give medical advice or tell you whether NAD+ is right for you
  • Recommend, rank or endorse any clinic
  • Repeat clinics' marketing claims or publish reviews
  • Say that NAD+ injections work, or that they are safe
  • Take payment to change a listing or a guide

The evidence

Clinics make claims. Here is what the research shows.

We rate each claim on a four-step scale, taken from the sources we cite, so you can see how much weight it can bear.

  1. Injected NAD+ for energy and fatigue

    We found no trials of injected NAD+ for energy or fatigue. The fatigue trial we found used an oral supplement and showed no significant difference from placebo.

    Unproven

  2. Injected NAD+ for ageing and longevity

    A 2026 systematic review found no outcomes trials of intravenous or intramuscular NAD+ for ageing or wellness aims, and called clinical effectiveness inconclusive.

    Unproven

  3. NAD+ levels fall as people age

    Some human tissue studies report lower NAD+ with age, a 2025 review calls the evidence limited and inconsistent, and a 2026 study of seven cohorts found whole-blood NAD+ stable.

    Mixed
Unproven
No good human evidence yet.
Early
Small or short studies, or mainly animal research.
Mixed
Human trials, with mixed or limited results.
Established
Repeated, well-run studies or clinical guidance.

In more detail

What are NAD+ injections and NAD+ IV therapy?

They are services in which some clinics give NAD+, a coenzyme found in your cells, by injection or by intravenous (IV) drip.

NAD+ takes part in energy metabolism and in enzymes involved in DNA repair and cell signalling, and that is established biochemistry 1.

What is not established is whether giving it by injection or drip changes how anyone feels or ages, which is why we keep the two questions apart.

Of the 92 clinics we checked, 67 list an IV route, 12 list injections, 11 list both and 2 do not say.

Our guides explain what NAD+ injections are, NAD+ IV therapy and what NAD+ is.

What does the evidence say about NAD+?

A 2026 systematic review found no outcomes trials of intravenous or intramuscular NAD+ for ageing or wellness aims 2.

A 2026 narrative review describes the evidence for IV NAD+ as “preliminary and insufficient to support routine clinical or wellness use” 3.

Not finding a trial does not prove that nothing happens, it means the question is open.

Claim you may see What we found Our rating
Energy and fatigue No trials of injected NAD+. An oral NAD+ precursor (nicotinamide riboside) showed no significant difference from placebo for fatigue in 58 people with long COVID 4. Unproven
Ageing and longevity No outcomes trials of IV or intramuscular NAD+. The review calls clinical effectiveness inconclusive 2. Unproven
NAD+ falls as people age A 2025 review says evidence of a decline is limited and inconsistent 5, and a 2026 study found whole-blood NAD+ stable across seven cohorts 6. Mixed

Reported short-term effects of IV NAD+ include nausea, cramping, flushing and chest discomfort, and long-term safety data are lacking 3.

Read the full ratings in what the evidence shows and the side effects guide.

It depends on whether a given NAD+ product counts as a medicinal product, and we found no public MHRA statement that settles that for NAD+.

If a product does count as a medicine, the Human Medicines Regulations 2012 make products for parenteral administration (by injection or infusion) prescription-only 7.

An MHRA spokesperson told The Observer in February 2025 that medicinal claims about NAD+ breach its regulations, as reported by the newspaper and not published by the MHRA 8.

CQC registration covers listed regulated activities, and CQC says one of them does not include interventions carried out purely for cosmetic purposes 9.

So a CQC match tells you something about the clinic, not that the NAD+ service itself is regulated or assessed.

See the legal status in the UK for the sources.

How much do UK clinics list for NAD+ injections and IV drips?

Across single-session prices we could count, IV drips had a median of £300 and injections a median of £90, as displayed on clinic websites on 11 November 2026.

We never pool the two routes, and a statistic is only shown with the number of prices behind it.

Route Prices (n) Clinics Range Median
IV drip, all doses 36 22 £150 to £500 £300
IV drip, 250mg 14 14 £199 to £450 £284.50
IV drip, 500mg 15 15 £299 to £500 £380
Injection 10 10 £50 to £150 £90

Clinics change prices, so confirm the total in writing before you commit to anything.

The prices clinics publish guide explains what we count and what we leave out.

How can I find a clinic that lists NAD+?

Use our free finder to find a clinic by city or browse all UK listings.

We have city pages for London (40 listings), Manchester (9), Birmingham (6), Liverpool, Norwich and Chelmsford (3 each).

A listing is not an endorsement, and a clinic can be listed without any of its claims being checked by us.

Before you contact anyone, it is worth reading how to choose a clinic, which sets out questions to ask about who prescribes, who administers and what the clinic’s registration covers.

How do we verify clinic listings?

We found clinics through Google Maps searches, screened 3,092 clinic websites for NAD+ content, found 173 that mentioned it and hand-checked 92 against their own websites.

Of those 92, 63 are level A and 29 are level B, and prices are as displayed on 11 November 2026.

We also compared every clinic with the CQC register: 41 matched a registered location, and we show a CQC line only for the 33 high-confidence matches 10.

The full method, including what we do not check, is in how we verify listings.

This page is general information, not medical advice. Speak to your GP or a registered prescriber before making any decision about NAD+, and read our medical disclaimer.

Guides

Start with the questions people ask.

  1. 01What is NAD+?NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in cells that is central to energy metabolism; whether adding more of it by injection, drip or supplement benefits health has not been established.
  2. 02What are NAD+ injections?NAD+ injections are doses of NAD+ given by needle into muscle or under the skin, and a 2026 systematic review found no outcomes trials of intramuscular NAD+ for ageing or wellness.
  3. 03What is NAD+ IV therapy?NAD+ IV therapy, or a NAD+ drip, is NAD+ given through a cannula into a vein over a session, and a 2026 systematic review found no outcomes trials of IV NAD+ for ageing or wellness.
  4. 04What are the benefits of NAD+, and what does the evidence show?We found no human outcomes trials showing that NAD+ injections improve health, so the claimed uses are unproven, while the basic biology of NAD+ is well established.
  5. 05What are the side effects of NAD+ injections?Small studies and a 2026 review report nausea, cramping, flushing and chest pressure with intravenous NAD+, more so at faster infusion rates, but we found no figures for how often they happen and no human studies of side effects for NAD+ given by subcutaneous injection.
  6. 06Are NAD+ injections legal in the UK?There is no simple yes or no: UK law sets rules on how medicinal products are prescribed, supplied, given and advertised, and no public MHRA statement we could find settles whether a given NAD+ product counts as one.
  7. 07What is the difference between NMN and NAD+?NAD+ is the coenzyme itself, while NMN and NR are precursors studied as ways of raising it, and in human trials their effects on health outcomes have been mixed and often null.
  8. 08How much do NAD+ injections cost in the UK?On 11 November 2026, UK clinics displayed single-session prices of £150 to £500 for an NAD+ IV drip (median £300, 36 price points from 22 providers) and £50 to £150 for an NAD+ injection (median £90, 10 price points from 10 providers).
  9. 09How do I check a clinic that offers NAD+ injections or IV therapy?Ask the clinic who prescribes and who gives the injection or drip, ask for its registration details and check them on the regulator's own register, and get the product, the risks and the total price in writing before you decide.

We list 92 UK clinics that say on their own websites that they offer NAD+ injections or IV therapy. Not every clinic is registered with a regulator, and registration does not mean the NAD+ service itself is regulated. Read how we verify listings.

How we work

How we write and check what you read.

We found clinics through Google Maps searches, screened 3,092 clinic websites for NAD+ content, found 173 that mentioned it, and hand-checked 92 against their own websites. Of those, 63 are level A (an NAD+ service page on the clinic's own site gives the route, address and phone) and 29 are level B. Prices are shown as displayed on clinic websites on 11 November 2026.
