NAD+ is a coenzyme found in every cell and involved in how the body produces energy. At AuraWell, NAD+ is offered at 250 mg or 500 mg and infused slowly in our Woodbridge lounge, with a registered nurse adjusting the rate for comfort. Every first visit starts with a health screen, and your practitioner will tell you honestly whether NAD+ makes sense for you.
For our rehabilitation services, direct insurance billing may be available depending on your provider and plan. If direct billing is unavailable, we will provide the appropriate receipt to submit to your insurer.
NAD+, short for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is a coenzyme found in every living cell. It plays a central role in how cells turn food into usable energy, and it is involved in DNA repair and in enzymes called sirtuins that help cells respond to stress. Your body makes NAD+ from forms of vitamin B3 in your diet and recycles it constantly.
Laboratory and animal studies have found that NAD+ levels fall in some tissues with age, which is why it attracts so much interest in wellness and healthy ageing.
Human studies of IV NAD+ are few and small. They show NAD+ can be infused, is generally tolerated when given slowly, and is processed quickly by the body.
There is not yet strong clinical trial evidence that IV NAD+ improves energy, slows ageing, sharpens thinking or treats any disease. Some people report feeling clearer after an infusion, and others notice no change. We offer NAD+ as a wellness infusion and describe it honestly.
The 250 mg dose is a sensible starting point for most first-time patients because it lets you see how you tolerate NAD+ in a shorter appointment. The 500 mg dose suits people who have had NAD+ before without difficulty and are comfortable with a longer session. Your practitioner helps you choose based on your history and goals.
A qualified practitioner reviews your health questionnaire, medications and vital signs. NAD+ is generally avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding, and people with heart, kidney or liver conditions, active cancer treatment or complex medication lists need individual review.
NAD+ is infused much more slowly than a standard drip. When it runs too fast, many people feel temporary chest tightness, stomach discomfort, nausea or flushing. Slowing the rate usually eases these feelings within minutes, and your nurse adjusts the pace throughout. Plan for a longer appointment than a regular drip, especially at 500 mg.
The IV is removed and you rest briefly. Most people return to their day and drive themselves home. Responses vary, and some feel tired for the rest of the day.
If your main concern is ongoing tiredness, check the basics first. Low iron, vitamin B12 deficiency, thyroid problems and poor sleep are common, treatable causes of fatigue, and our Nurse Practitioners can arrange blood work in the same clinic. If your iron is low, an iron infusion or tablets will do more for you than any wellness drip.
NAD+ is $235 for 250 mg and $295 for 500 mg. Each price includes your health screen, a nurse-administered infusion prepared for your visit and monitoring throughout. The four-session package takes fifteen percent off any drip, including NAD+.
Our infusion lounge is at 4600 Hwy 7, Unit 105 in Woodbridge, near Pine Valley Drive, with free parking and easy access from Highway 400 and Highway 407. Patients come from Woodbridge, Vaughan, Maple, Kleinburg, Richmond Hill, Thornhill and Toronto, and every visit sits inside an NP-led medical clinic.
Prefer a quick vitamin injection? B12 and vitamin D injections are given by our Nurse Practitioner, Samar Davarpanah, NP-PHC, after a short health review. For a whole-person plan for energy, hormones, digestion or nutrition, naturopathic care with Dr. Parya Bahrampour, ND starts with a free 15-minute consultation and, with your consent, is coordinated with your Nurse Practitioner and IV care in one plan.

NAD+ is infused slowly, so plan for a longer visit than a standard drip. The 500 mg dose takes longer than 250 mg, and your nurse may slow the rate further for comfort.
These effects are linked to the infusion rate. Slowing the drip usually eases them within minutes, which is why NAD+ is always given slowly with a nurse nearby.
No reliable evidence shows that NAD+ infusions reverse ageing in people. Research is ongoing, and we prefer to be clear about what is and is not known.
They are different. Oral precursors such as nicotinamide riboside are convenient and better studied for raising blood levels. IV NAD+ needs a clinic visit and a longer appointment. Neither replaces sleep, nutrition and care for any medical condition.
No referral is needed. Every first visit includes a health screen, and your practitioner may suggest blood work depending on your history.
IV drips are generally not offered during pregnancy or breastfeeding without individual medical review. People with heart, liver or kidney conditions also need individual review, and your screening checks this before anything is infused.
Have a light meal and drink some water beforehand, as arriving hungry can make nausea more noticeable. Tell your nurse straight away if you feel unwell during the infusion so the rate can be slowed.
