NAD+ Energy Shots

Quick wellness support-powered by what your cells use every day.
At Lighthouse Aesthetics, we believe confidence begins with self-care. NAD+ energy shots are a convenient option for clients looking to support everyday energy, resilience, and recovery-without adding stimulants or sugar.

What is an NAD+?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every living cell. It plays a central role in converting nutrients into usable cellular energy and supports multiple processes tied to metabolism and cellular maintenance.

NAD+ biology is also a major area of research in healthy aging and mitochondrial function, but clinical outcomes from "NAD boosting" approaches vary and more human research is still needed.

What is an NAD+ "energy shot"?

An NAD+ energy shot is a provider-administered injection offered as a wellness service after a medical screening and goal-setting visit.

Important note about regulation: NAD+ injections are typically compounded sterile preparations, and compounded drugs are not FDA-approved (FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness, or quality prior to use).

Why people choose NAD+ shots

Clients often choose NAD+ shots when they want wellness support such as:

  • Feeling run-down from a busy schedule
  • Wanting a non-stimulant option to support energy routines
  • Support for recovery after travel, long work weeks, or intense training
  • A "reset" to pair with better sleep, hydration, nutrition, and exercise habits

Results vary. NAD+ shots are not a substitute for sleep, nutrition, or medical care.

What to expect at your visit
Quick Consult + Screening

We review your goals, health history, and whether this service is appropriate for you.

Treatment

Your NAD+ shot is administered by a trained medical professional.

Aftercare
Most clients return to normal activities right away. We'll provide personalized instructions based on your plan.
How fast does it work? How long does it last?

Some people report feeling a same-day shift in how they feel; others prefer a series and notice changes more gradually. Because response can be highly individual-and research on outcomes for NAD+ injections is still limited-we'll help you choose a plan based on your goals and how you respond.

Safety & Quality Matter

Because NAD+ injectable products are commonly compounded, sterile quality standards are critical. The FDA has reported adverse events following use of NAD+ injectable drugs, including severe chills, shaking, vomiting, and fatigue, consistent with endotoxin reactions in some cases.

This is why medical screening, appropriate sourcing, and sterile handling protocols are a must.

Possible side effects (can vary by person and product) may include:

  • Temporary soreness at the injection site
  • Nausea or stomach upset
  • Feeling flushed or "off" briefly

(With IV NAD+ in a real-world tolerability pilot, some participants reported Gl symptoms, increased heart rate, and chest pressure during infusion that resolved when the infusion ended.)

Seek medical care immediately for severe reactions (rigors/chills, persistent vomiting, chest pain/pressure, trouble breathing, or swelling).

Who Is A Good Candidate?

NAD+ shots may be a fit if you're looking for a wellness-focused option and you:

  • Want a quick, in-office service
  • Prefer a non-stimulant routine support
  • Are comfortable with an injection and understand results can vary

We may recommend postponing or choosing an alternative if there are medical factors that make injections inappropriate. A consultation is required.

FAQs

Is NAD+ FDA-approved?

NAD+ injections are generally provided as compounded preparations, and compounded drugs are not FDA-approved (FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness, or quality before they reach patients).

Will this “fix” my fatigue?

NAD+ shots are a wellness service and not a treatment for medical causes of fatigue. If you have persistent or severe fatigue, we’ll recommend you speak with your primary care provider.

How often should I get NAD+ shots?

Plans are individualized. Some clients prefer occasional support; others choose a short series and then maintenance based on how they respond.

Are there risks?

All injections carry some risk (like soreness or bruising). Because NAD+ injectables are compounded, sterile quality also matters; the FDA has reported adverse events with some NAD+ injectable products. We use only high quality, sterile NAD+ injectables at Lighthouse Aesthetics.
