NAD+ IV Therapy in Los Angeles: Cost, What to Expect & How to Choose (2026 Guide)

NAD+ IV therapy has become one of the most-requested wellness services in Los Angeles — and one of the most misunderstood. Prices swing from $300 to $900 for what sounds like the same drip, sessions can run one hour or four, and the marketing claims range from careful to outlandish. This guide covers what NAD+ actually is, what a session involves, what it costs across LA in 2026, and how to tell a provider worth your trust from one worth avoiding.

What is NAD+?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every living cell. It plays a central role in how your mitochondria convert nutrients into cellular energy and supports enzymes involved in cellular repair. Research suggests the body’s NAD+ levels decline substantially with age — by some estimates, roughly half between your 30s and 60s — which is a big part of why the molecule has attracted so much attention in longevity and wellness circles.

NAD+ IV therapy delivers the coenzyme directly into the bloodstream through a slow intravenous drip, bypassing digestion entirely.

Why people book NAD+ infusions

Clients most commonly come to us seeking support with energy, mental clarity, recovery after intense work or travel stretches, and general wellness as part of a longevity-minded routine. Some pair NAD+ with a glutathione infusion or build it into a broader plan alongside a provider-supervised weight-management program.

An honest note on the science: while the biology of NAD+ is well established and early human research is active, large controlled trials proving specific outcomes from NAD+ infusions haven’t been published yet. Anyone promising that an NAD+ drip will fix a specific condition is ahead of the evidence — and that’s exactly the kind of claim we don’t make. What we can tell you is what the service involves, who it may be appropriate for, and what our clients report — individual experiences vary, and eligibility is always determined by a licensed provider first.

What a session actually looks like

A proper NAD+ infusion is not a quick drip. Expect roughly 90 minutes to 3 hours depending on your dose and how your body responds — NAD+ is infused slowly because pushing it fast commonly causes flushing, queasiness, or chest tightness, all of which typically ease when the rate is slowed. This is why NAD+ belongs in the hands of licensed clinicians who monitor you throughout and adjust in real time, whether you’re in a clinic chair or getting concierge care at home.

At IV Glow Bar, every NAD+ infusion is administered by a registered nurse under physician supervision — meet our licensed team here — in-clinic on San Vicente Blvd or concierge anywhere across Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, and West Hollywood.

What NAD+ IV therapy costs in Los Angeles (2026)

Across the LA market this year, entry doses (~250mg) generally run $125–$200, standard doses (~500mg) run $300–$500, and full-protocol doses (750–1,000mg) run $500–$900 — with some providers adding $100–$150 for mobile visits. Three things drive the price: pharmaceutical-grade NAD+ itself is expensive, sessions occupy a clinician for hours rather than minutes, and side-effect management requires real clinical skill.

Our pricing is transparent: the NAD+ Infusion is $450, provider-supervised, in-clinic or concierge. Not ready for a full infusion? The NAD+ injection at $70 is a quicker, lower-commitment way to start — many clients begin there.

Loading vs. maintenance

Many providers structure NAD+ as an initial loading phase — several sessions over two to four weeks — followed by monthly or twice-monthly maintenance. Whether that structure makes sense for you depends on your goals, budget, and your provider’s assessment; it’s exactly the kind of question your consultation is for.

How to choose a provider (red flags to watch)

The NAD+ boom has attracted operators who cut corners. Watch for: vague dosing (“NAD+ drip” with no milligram amount), “full dose” sessions under an hour (a real NAD+ infusion can’t be rushed safely), unlicensed staff placing IVs, and miracle-cure marketing. A trustworthy provider will name the dose, take the time, staff the session with licensed clinicians, and screen you before you ever book a drip. IV Glow Bar is LegitScript-certified, our clinicians are licensed and named publicly, and every service begins with a health intake review.

Frequently asked questions

How long does an NAD+ IV take?

Plan for 90 minutes to 3 hours depending on dose and your comfort — the drip rate is adjusted to you.

Does it hurt?

You’ll feel a standard IV placement. During the infusion some people feel warmth or mild pressure, which your nurse manages by slowing the rate.

How often do people get NAD+?

Common patterns range from occasional single sessions to a short loading series followed by monthly maintenance — your provider will recommend a cadence at your consultation.

Can I get NAD+ at home in LA?

Yes — we bring the full clinical setup to homes across Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, and West Hollywood as concierge service.

Is NAD+ right for me?

That’s a clinical question, not a marketing one. Certain conditions call for extra caution or make IV therapy inappropriate, which is why a licensed provider reviews your health history before any treatment.
