NAD+ 500 mg
Educational recon guide for a 500 mg NAD+ research vial and milligram session mapping. Research use only — clinic metabolic context, not a microgram peptide.

Weekly research phases
Units and volumes recompute from your Step 1 concentration (5 mL BAC → 100.00 mg/mL · 1000.0 mcg/unit).
Standard titration
Subcutaneous clinic educational tables often start around ~20–50 mg and titrate toward ~50–100 mg per injection, 1–3 times weekly. IV wellness protocols frequently discuss multi-hundred to ~500–1000 mg per infusion under supervision — different risk/route profile than small SC draws.

NAD+ 500 mg vials
2 vials
~700 mg mg total peptide over this 12-week schedule at 25 mg → 50 mg → 100 mg weekly (phase ladder). Each vial holds 500 mg.
Bacteriostatic water
4 × 3 mL or 1 × 10 mL
5 mL BAC per vial × 2 vials = 10.0 mL total. Buy as 4× 3 mL bottles or 1× 10 mL bottle (whichever you stock).
U-100 insulin syringes (100-unit)
12+ syringes
About one 100-unit syringe per injection for this schedule. Keep a few spares.
Alcohol swabs & sharps
~28 swabs · 1 sharps container
Wipe vial stopper and injection site each time. Dispose needles in a proper sharps container.
Reconstitution steps
- Allow the lyophilized 500 mg NAD+ vial and bacteriostatic water to reach room temperature.
- Draw 5.0 mL bacteriostatic water (default for this guide).
- Inject BAC slowly down the inner wall of the vial — avoid blasting the powder cake.
- Gently swirl or roll until the solution is clear. Do not shake hard (foaming).
- Label with recon date and concentration (e.g. "100.0 mg/mL — 5 mL BAC").
- Refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35–46 °F), protected from light. Prefer using a reconstituted multi-dose vial within ~28 days with sterile technique.
Storage
Lyophilized
Keep dry powder cold and dark when possible (−20 °C / −4 °F preferred for long-term research stock).
Reconstituted
Refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35–46 °F). Avoid freeze–thaw of the working solution. Prefer finishing within ~28 days.
- ·Write recon date and BAC volume on the label.
- ·Protect from light during storage.
- ·Discard if cloudy, particulates, or odd odor appear after reconstitution.
Protocol notes
- ·NAD+ is a redox cofactor, not a classic short research peptide.
- ·Flushing, chest pressure, and infusion-rate reactions are discussed especially with IV.
- ·Research/clinic use only — not a substitute for evaluating fatigue medically.
Research context & considerations
Raising NAD+ is an active aging/metabolic research theme (precursors and parenteral NAD). Research vials and wellness clinic protocols are not the same as approved indication-specific therapies.
- ·IV administration requires clinical competency — not a home experiment.
- ·Quality and sterility of research-market powders vary.
- ·Not FDA-approved as a research-vial anti-aging drug.
- ·Pregnancy out of scope.
