NAD+ IV Therapy

Thrive Medicine Clinic administers NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) via intravenous infusion for maximum cellular absorption. NAD+ is a coenzyme involved in cellular energy metabolism, DNA repair, and mitochondrial function. The clinic also offers subcutaneous injections, nasal spray, and topical cream as alternative delivery methods. Treatment is personalised — a consultation determines the appropriate protocol and frequency based on the patient's health goals and baseline labs.

NAD+ IV therapy at Thrive Medicine Clinic delivers nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive absorption limits that reduce the efficacy of oral NAD+ supplements. NAD+ is a coenzyme found in every cell of the body and plays a central role in cellular energy production (via the mitochondrial electron transport chain), DNA repair (as a substrate for PARP enzymes), and the activity of sirtuins — a class of proteins strongly associated with longevity and metabolic regulation. NAD+ levels decline with age, and this decline is associated with reduced cellular energy, impaired DNA repair capacity, and diminished mitochondrial function. Intravenous administration achieves plasma concentrations that oral supplementation cannot reach, which is why the IV route is offered as the primary delivery method for patients seeking the most direct therapeutic effect. At Thrive Medicine Clinic, the NAD+ programme begins with a physician consultation that reviews the patient's health history, current symptoms, lab results (particularly metabolic and mitochondrial markers), and goals — whether that is improved energy and cognitive clarity, recovery from physical training, post-illness restoration, or anti-ageing cellular support. A personalised protocol is then designed, specifying infusion frequency and dosing. For patients who prefer a less time-intensive option or are maintaining an established protocol, the clinic offers subcutaneous injection, nasal spray, and topical cream as alternative delivery formats. Each method has a different absorption profile and is appropriate for different phases of treatment or patient lifestyles. Sessions are conducted at the Houston Heights clinic under physician or nurse practitioner supervision, with Allen Carrera (MSN, APRN, FNP-C) providing ongoing clinical oversight. The clinic serves patients from the Houston Heights neighbourhood, inner-loop Houston, Sugar Land, and surrounding areas.
