NAD+ IV Drip vs Injection vs Supplement: Which Is Right for You? | MyNad+

With three main ways to take NAD+ now available in the UK, choosing between an IV drip, an injection pen, and an oral supplement comes down to your budget, lifestyle, and comfort with needles.

NAD+ IV Drips

IV drips are administered in a clinic and deliver a large NAD+ dose directly into the bloodstream over an hour or more. They're the most clinical option and usually the most expensive, requiring an appointment each time.

NAD+ Injections (Pens & Subcut Kits)

Subcutaneous injections, like MyNad+'s pen kits, deliver smaller, more frequent doses just under the skin. You administer them yourself at home in seconds, which makes them far more convenient and cost-effective for ongoing use than repeated clinic visits.

Oral & Capsule NAD+ Supplements

Capsules avoid needles entirely and are the simplest to take, but oral NAD+ and its precursors (like NMN) have lower bioavailability, meaning less reaches your bloodstream compared with injectable forms.

Which Should You Choose?

If you want maximum convenience with no needles, capsules are the easiest entry point. If you're comfortable with a simple subcutaneous injection and want better bioavailability without clinic visits, an at-home pen kit is usually the best balance of cost, convenience, and effect. IV drips make most sense for those who prefer a supervised, clinical setting occasionally rather than an ongoing routine.
