NAD+ Therapy
NAD+ stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. It is a coenzyme found in the body and involved in cellular energy production, mitochondrial function, and metabolic processes.
NAD+ levels may decline with age and physiologic stress. Some people seek NAD+ support to help with general wellness goals such as energy, mental clarity, recovery, and healthy aging.
MrsMD Lift™ is different from standalone NAD+ supplementation. MrsMD Lift™ is a clinician-guided medical weight management program that combines NAD+ with semaglutide or tirzepatide for eligible patients, with formulation, dosing, and treatment decisions determined by an MrsMD provider.
MrsMD Lift™ vs. NAD+ Supplement
Option | What it is | Best for | Requires provider review? |
|---|---|---|---|
MrsMD Lift™ | A clinician-guided medical weight management program combining NAD+ with semaglutide or tirzepatide | Eligible patients seeking medical weight management with GLP-1/GIP-based therapy and ongoing oversight | Yes |
NAD+ Supplement Support | NAD+ may be used as a supportive wellness supplement or therapy option | Patients interested in cellular energy, focus, healthy aging support, or wellness optimization | Yes, if prescribed or administered through MrsMD |
What is MrsMD Lift™?
MrsMD Lift™ is a clinician-guided medical weight management program for eligible patients. The program may include a compounded formulation of semaglutide + NAD+ or tirzepatide + NAD+, depending on medical review and provider determination.
MrsMD Lift™ is designed to support:
- Medical weight management
- Metabolic function
- Cellular energy pathways
- Personalized treatment planning
- Ongoing provider oversight
Every patient is reviewed by a MrsMD provider. Medication selection, dosing, and treatment adjustments are based on clinical appropriateness, health history, goals, and state availability.
How NAD+ May Support Wellness
Patients may be interested in NAD+ support for:
- Cellular energy pathways
- Metabolic function
- Mental clarity and focus
- Healthy aging support
- Recovery and general wellness
- Support during lifestyle or weight management efforts
Individual responses vary. NAD+ is not a substitute for medical treatment, nutrition, sleep, movement, or appropriate prescription therapy.
Use compliant structure/function language here. Avoid stronger claims like “treats fatigue,” “reverses aging,” “treats menopause symptoms,” “reduces cravings,” or “prevents hair loss.” FDA guidance requires dietary supplement structure/function claims to avoid disease-treatment claims and to include the standard disclaimer that the product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.
NAD+ Alone Is Not MrsMD Lift™
This distinction should be explicit and repeated.
NAD+ by itself is a wellness-support option. MrsMD Lift™ is a medical weight management program that may combine NAD+ with semaglutide or tirzepatide when appropriate.
Completing an NAD+ inquiry does not automatically enroll you in MrsMD Lift™. Starting MrsMD Lift™ requires a separate medical intake, eligibility review, and provider approval.
Who May Be a Good Fit for MrsMD Lift™?
MrsMD Lift™ may be appropriate for adults seeking clinician-guided weight management who want a personalized plan that may include GLP-1 or GIP/GLP-1 medication when medically appropriate.
Patients may be interested in MrsMD Lift™ if they are looking for:
- A structured medical weight management program
- Provider-guided treatment rather than self-directed supplement use
- A plan that may include semaglutide or tirzepatide
- Ongoing monitoring and dose adjustment
- Support for metabolic health and sustainable weight management
Prescribing is not guaranteed. Eligibility depends on medical history, current medications, contraindications, state availability, and clinician review.

Anti-Aging Benefits
While aging is a natural part of life, NAD+ therapy offers a promising approach to support healthy aging and potentially slow down the aging process. As we get older, our NAD+ levels decline, contributing to cellular dysfunction and age-related health issues. By replenishing NAD+ levels through injections or IV infusions, we can support cellular repair, boost mitochondrial function (the powerhouses of our cells), and promote overall vitality. This can lead to a range of anti-aging benefits, including improved cognitive function, increased energy levels, enhanced skin health, and a greater sense of well-being.
Cellular Repair
NAD+ plays a crucial role in DNA repair, helping to protect cells from damage and maintain their optimal function.
Mitochondrial Function
NAD+ is essential for mitochondrial health, which is vital for energy production and overall cellular function. Boosting mitochondrial function can help combat age-related decline.
Reduced Inflammation
NAD+ has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects, which can help protect against age-related diseases and promote healthy aging.
Improved Cognitive Function
Studies suggest that NAD+ may help improve memory, focus, and other cognitive functions that tend to decline with age.
Increased Energy Levels
By enhancing mitochondrial function, NAD+ can help boost energy levels and combat fatigue, promoting a more youthful and active lifestyle.
Enhanced Skin Health
Some research suggests that NAD+ may improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of our bodies. It plays a crucial role in hundreds of metabolic processes, including energy production, DNA repair, and gene expression. NAD+ levels naturally decline as we age, which is thought to contribute to age-related changes like decreased energy, cognitive decline, and metabolic issues. NAD+ therapy aims to replenish these levels.
No. NAD+ is a supplement/supportive therapy option. MrsMD Lift™ is a clinician-guided medical weight management program that may combine NAD+ with semaglutide or tirzepatide for eligible patients.
MrsMD Lift™ may include semaglutide with NAD+ or tirzepatide with NAD+ when clinically appropriate. The provider determines the formulation and dose after reviewing your medical history.
Some potential benefits associated with NAD+ therapy include:
- Increased energy levels
- Improved mental clarity and focus
- Enhanced mood
- Better sleep
- Support for healthy aging
- Potential improvements in metabolic health
It is important to note that research on NAD+ is ongoing, and while many people report positive results, these benefits are not universally experienced, and more studies are needed to fully understand the effects of NAD+
NAD+ can be administered in several ways, including:
- Intravenous (IV) Infusion: This is a common method where NAD+ is delivered directly into the bloodstream through an IV drip.
- Intramuscular (IM) Injection: NAD+ can be injected into a muscle.
- Subcutaneous (SC) Injection: NAD+ can be injected under the skin.
- Intranasal (IN) Solution: NAD+ can be administered as a nasal spray.
- Oral Supplements: NAD+ supplements are available in capsule or powder form, although absorption may be less efficient compared to injections, IV infusions, or intranasal spray.
The most appropriate method for you should be discussed with an MrsMD healthcare professional.
While generally considered safe, NAD+ therapy can have some potential side effects, although they are usually mild and temporary. These can include:

It is crucial to discuss any pre-existing medical conditions and medications you are taking with your healthcare provider before starting NAD+ therapy to minimize the risk of side effects or interactions.
NAD+ therapy may be a suitable option for individuals looking to support healthy aging, improve energy levels, or enhance cognitive function. However, it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. It is essential to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine if NAD+ therapy is appropriate for your individual needs and health status. They can assess your medical history, discuss your goals, and help you make an informed decision. They can also help you understand the potential benefits and risks associated with NAD+ therapy.
No. NAD+ is not a weight loss medication. It may support cellular energy and metabolic pathways, but it should not be positioned as a stand-alone obesity treatment. For medical weight management, MrsMD Lift™ or another provider-guided program is the appropriate pathway.
No. MrsMD Lift™ availability depends on the states where MrsMD providers and dispensing pharmacy are licensed. The homepage currently lists availability for MrsMD Lift™ in selected states and notes that prescribing is subject to clinician review.
Compounded medications are not FDA-approved in the same way branded medications are. FDA has also recently proposed excluding semaglutide, tirzepatide, and liraglutide from the 503B bulks list, finding no clinical need for outsourcing facilities to compound these drugs from bulk substances. This makes careful compliance review important for any current GLP-1 compounding language.
Dietary supplement structure/function claims are not evaluated by FDA before marketing in the same way drug claims are. FDA requires the standard disclaimer that the product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.
