Cost & Insurance

NAD+ IV therapy is one of the most expensive protocols in the entire IV wellness industry. A single session can range from $400 to over $1,500 depending on dose, city, and clinic. This guide breaks down what drives the pricing, what you should actually expect to pay by dose and by city, when packages are worth it, and the add-on protocols that can either add real value or pad the bill. If you're considering NAD+ but want to know what fair pricing looks like, this is the breakdown.

Why NAD+ costs more than other IVs

Three specific factors drive NAD+ pricing higher than almost any other IV protocol. First, the active ingredient is expensive. NAD+ raw material costs are dramatically higher than B vitamins, vitamin C, or saline — the pharmacy cost alone for 500mg of NAD+ can be $150 to $300. Second, infusion time is long. NAD+ must be infused slowly to avoid side effects (chest pressure, anxiety, abdominal discomfort). A 500mg dose typically takes 2 to 4 hours; a 1000mg dose can stretch to 6 to 8 hours. That ties up a clinic chair and staff for much longer than the 30 to 60 minutes of a standard wellness IV. Third, demand exceeds supply in most premium markets, supporting higher pricing.

Pricing by dose

NAD+ pricing scales with dose, but not always linearly:

  • 125mg "intro" or "starter" sessions: $300 to $475 — typically a 90-minute infusion, used for first-timers to test tolerance
  • 250mg "low dose": $400 to $650 — typically a 2-hour infusion, common entry-level full session
  • 500mg "moderate dose": $600 to $900 — typically a 3 to 4 hour infusion, most common dose for series protocols
  • 750mg "high dose": $800 to $1,100 — typically a 4 to 6 hour infusion
  • 1000mg "maximum dose": $950 to $1,500 — typically a 6 to 8 hour infusion, less commonly offered

Pricing by city

NAD+ pricing varies meaningfully by market. Premium coastal cities sit at the top end of every range:

  • Los Angeles, San Francisco, Manhattan, Boston: top of range across all doses; 500mg sessions often $750 to $1,000
  • Las Vegas (Strip mobile): premium hotel pricing; 500mg around $800 to $1,000
  • Toronto (CAD): $700 to $1,000 CAD for 500mg
  • Mid-market US cities (Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas, Phoenix): 500mg typically $600 to $800
  • Smaller markets and clinic-only locations: 500mg can be $500 to $700

Single sessions vs packages

NAD+ is one of the strongest cases for buying packages instead of single sessions. Most clinics offer 6-session, 8-session, or 10-session packages at 15 to 25% discount over single sessions. The reasoning isn't just price: NAD+ effects build over a series. A single session can leave clients underwhelmed, while a 6-session series over 4 to 6 weeks produces more substantial cumulative effects.

A typical NAD+ package might look like:

  • 6 × 500mg sessions: $3,000 to $4,500 (vs $3,600 to $5,400 single)
  • 10 × 250mg sessions: $3,200 to $5,200 (vs $4,000 to $6,500 single)

If you're committing to NAD+ at all, the package math almost always works in your favor.

Add-on protocols — value vs padding

Several common NAD+ add-ons are popular at clinics:

  • B-complex push ($25 to $50) — provides cofactors NAD+ needs to function; generally good value
  • Glutathione push ($50 to $100) — antioxidant support; reasonable but not essential
  • Amino acid stack ($75 to $150) — supports cellular synthesis; nice-to-have but adds substantial cost
  • NAD+ booster shot to go home with ($50 to $150) — usually B12 plus methylated cofactors; debatable value
  • Vitamin C push during the infusion ($25 to $75) — generally good value if you're not getting it elsewhere

The cumulative add-on math matters. A $700 NAD+ session can easily become $1,000+ once you've added three or four upgrades. Decide upfront which add-ons you want and which you'd politely decline.

Mobile vs in-clinic NAD+

NAD+ mobile service is unusually expensive given the long infusion time — a nurse essentially has to spend 3 to 6 hours in your home. Expect mobile NAD+ to add $200 to $500 over the equivalent in-clinic pricing, particularly for high-dose sessions.

For most clients, in-clinic NAD+ is meaningfully better value. The exception is concierge mobile service to hotel suites for high-value clients (Las Vegas, Beverly Hills, Miami Beach) where the convenience justifies the premium.

Insurance coverage

NAD+ IV is not covered by insurance in the US or Canada for any wellness indication. Some practitioners offer NAD+ as part of addiction recovery protocols where it may be partially covered under specific medical billing codes — confirm before assuming coverage.
