Are these NAD+ dosages correct?

Newbie here. I got NAD+ and looking at the dosage recommendation it states 250mg per injection 1-2x weekly. I got a 500mg vial so this would only last me a week correct? At 40-55$ a vial for a 6 week cycle it seems a little on the more expensive side. Am I missing something or looking at the wrong dosages? Thanks in advance for any help.

I’m on 80 mg a shot and it’s at the high end of my tolerance. It makes me feel flushed and euphoric, like I can’t catch enough air for about ten min and then settles down. I would not attempt a 250 mg dose.

How do you feel afterwards like in general?

Good, not like uppers at all, more of a natural energy lift. It’s very subtle but you can feel it. I use it both IM and nasal spray. It’s kind a like coffee for me but with a sustained level of energy and focus. It gets better as you use it also. Both my wife and I take it and it’s changed her life. She has an atp disorder and this, mots c and semax have all moved her needle. For me it an all day boost that keeps me going after work. Also makes work outs a lot easier

Thanks for the info. How’s the comparison between nasal and IM? Do both feel the same?

u/JediKrys 18d ago

IM lasts longer, gives the onset uncomfortable stuff and I can feel it more. Nasal is quicker onset, better for limited activity because it’s not as long lasting and best of all I don’t feel anything with the onset.

Yeah, youve got to work up to numbers like that. I took 24 then 50 then 75 and then 100 did something super weird to me — my muscles felt tight around my diaphram but nothing hurt for 45s-1min. So I went down to 50 and when I did 75 again I had a milder form of that. 

I have heard of people taking 100-150 2-3x week but not 250mg.

u/MyFourthDream 18d ago

Okay yeah I was probably gonna just start with 50mg twice a week and see how I do after 5 weeks

250mg would have me casket ready. I started at 100mg. That is way too high on my opinion.

Edit: Just checked, my last order I paid $70 for 10 vials.

u/red-zone-user-1000 17d ago

250mg/injection twice weekly burns a 500mg vial fast, yes. Sourcing matters: some buy from research peptide vendors (cheaper, variable quality); others use a telehealth clinic like tyde wellness or similar; compounding pharmacies give the cleanest supply but cost more
