NAD+ IV therapy has moved from longevity-clinic novelty to a regular part of the wellness rotation for clients across Beverly Hills. At Dripology, the infusion is delivered by licensed registered nurses under physician oversight through our medical director MSO structure, in a private suite a short walk from Rodeo Drive.
What NAD+ actually is
NAD+ stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, a coenzyme present in every cell of the human body. It is a central player in cellular energy production, DNA repair signaling, and the activity of sirtuins, a class of regulatory proteins involved in metabolic and stress-response pathways. Levels of NAD+ decline with age, and supporting them through intravenous infusion has become one of the most requested wellness services in concierge medspa settings.
The IV route delivers NAD+ directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. Oral NAD precursors such as NR and NMN have grown in popularity, but a portion of any oral dose is broken down before it reaches circulation. IV delivery sidesteps that step.
How a session runs at our Beverly Hills location
You arrive, complete a brief intake with your RN, and settle into a private suite. NAD+ infusions are slow by design, running over 90 to 240 minutes depending on the dose. Faster infusion rates often produce a heavy, tight feeling in the chest or jaw, so we titrate the rate carefully to your tolerance. Most clients work, read, or rest during the session, and we have charging ports and quiet seating for that reason.
Typical doses range from 250 mg for first-time clients up to 1000 mg for established protocol clients. Pricing depends on dose and is best confirmed at booking. Contact our concierge team for current pricing.
Who NAD+ IV therapy may support
Clients often report renewed mental clarity, more stable daytime energy, and better recovery from training or travel after a series of sessions. NAD+ is not a substitute for sleep, balanced nutrition, or medical care for any specific condition. It is best understood as a wellness service designed to support cellular health rather than as medicine.
Common reasons clients book with us in Beverly Hills include preparing for a demanding work stretch, recovery from international travel and jet lag, supporting an established longevity protocol with their physician, or curiosity after hearing about NAD+ from a friend or trainer.
What to expect during and after the session
During the infusion, the most common sensations are mild flushing, transient warmth, and pressure in the chest if the rate climbs too high. Slowing the drip resolves this almost immediately, and your RN will adjust on the fly. Headache, mild nausea, and short-lived fatigue can occur for a few hours after a higher-dose session. Most clients feel a noticeable lift the following morning.
Hydration before and after the session matters. We recommend a substantial glass of water on arrival and a light meal beforehand. Caffeine is fine. Heavy alcohol the night before is not recommended because it depletes NAD+ in the body and can amplify infusion-related discomfort the next day.
How NAD+ fits with other Dripology services
NAD+ is often paired with a Myers Cocktail or a glutathione push, which can be added to the same session. Clients on a longevity-focused protocol with their physician sometimes combine NAD+ with vitamin B12, methylated B-complex, or amino acid blends. Your RN can review compatible add-ons during intake and confirm what is appropriate for your visit.
For first-time clients, we generally suggest a single 250 mg or 500 mg session before committing to a series. NAD+ is a meaningful investment of time, and a single session is enough to see how your body responds.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should someone get NAD+ IV therapy?
It depends on the goal. Many clients in Beverly Hills start with a loading series of three to six sessions over two to three weeks, then move to a maintenance cadence of one session every four to six weeks. Your RN can suggest a schedule based on your intake.
How long does a Dripology NAD+ session take?
Plan on 90 minutes for a 250 mg session and up to four hours for higher doses. Faster than that, the infusion becomes uncomfortable for most clients, so we do not push the rate.
Is NAD+ IV therapy safe?
NAD+ IV therapy is generally well tolerated when delivered by a licensed RN at appropriate rates. It is not appropriate for everyone, and your RN will review your intake form, current medications, and history before starting the infusion.
