NAD+ IV Therapy in Boston
Restore cellular energy, cognitive clarity, and recovery capacity. Medically supervised NAD+ protocols starting at $425.
Medically directed and founded by Olivia Kelly, NP, NP, RN — Licensed since 2003.
NAD+ is the master coenzyme powering energy production and DNA repair in every one of your cells. Levels decline sharply with age, stress, and disease — and low NAD+ shows up as fatigue, brain fog, poor sleep, slower recovery, and accelerated aging. IV NAD+ therapy delivers a therapeutic dose directly to your cells for measurable results in 24–72 hours. IV League's NAD+ protocols are designed by NP Olivia Kelly and administered led by our Medical Director Olivia Kelly, NP.

NAD+ IV vs. injections vs. oral supplements
All three raise NAD+ — they differ in how much reaches your cells and how fast you feel it.
| Method | Typical dose | Time | Absorption | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NAD+ IV infusion | 250mg | 60–90 min | 100% bioavailable | Loading phase, biggest and fastest effect |
| NAD+ IM / SC injection | Lower dose | ~10 min | High | Weekly maintenance between infusions |
| Oral NR / NMN capsules | Precursor only | Daily | Limited by first-pass metabolism | Between-visit top-up, not a replacement |

Benefits
Why patients choose NAD+ IV therapy
Cellular energy restoration
NAD+ is essential for mitochondrial ATP production. Restoring cellular energy is why clients report deep, sustained energy rather than a caffeine-style spike.
Sharper cognition and focus
Many clients notice improved mental clarity, faster recall, and less brain fog within 24–72 hours of their first infusion.
Better recovery and performance
NAD+ supports repair pathways used by athletes, executives, and shift workers. Faster recovery from training, illness, and stress.
Neuroprotective and anti-aging
Growing research supports NAD+ for longevity, addiction recovery, chronic fatigue, and neuroprotection. We build protocols around your goals.
DNA repair and cellular defense
NAD+ fuels the sirtuin and PARP enzymes that repair DNA damage from age, alcohol, UV exposure, and oxidative stress.
Mood and sleep quality
Clients on a loading series frequently report steadier mood and deeper sleep — likely tied to improved mitochondrial function and neurotransmitter synthesis.

The process
What to expect at your visit
Free consultation
We review your health goals, medications, and history. Baseline labs recommended for anti-aging clients.
Slow infusion
NAD+ must be infused slowly. We start at a comfortable rate and adjust based on how you feel — 60–90 minutes total.
Onset in 24–72 hrs
Most clients feel a clarity + energy shift the day after their first infusion. Effects compound with a loading series.
Maintenance protocol
After a loading phase, monthly (or more frequent) maintenance keeps NAD+ elevated. We schedule automatically for members.

FAQ
Common questions
What is NAD+ IV therapy?
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of your body — it's essential for energy production, DNA repair, and cellular longevity. Levels decline sharply after age 30. NAD+ IV therapy delivers a therapeutic dose directly to your cells.
How much does NAD+ IV cost in Boston?
NAD+ IV therapy at IV League starts at $425 for a single 250mg infusion. Multi-session packages ($1,600 for 4 infusions) reduce the per-visit cost significantly. Members save on every session.
How long does a NAD+ drip take?
60–90 minutes depending on your dose and tolerance. NAD+ must be infused slowly to minimize side effects — we titrate the drip rate to your comfort.
What does NAD+ feel like?
During infusion, some people experience a mild flushing, chest tightness, or nausea — this resolves quickly if we slow the drip. Afterward, most clients report increased mental clarity, energy, and mood within 24–72 hours.
Is NAD+ safe?
NAD+ has a strong safety profile when administered by licensed medical professionals. Every infusion at IV League is placed by an RN led by our Medical Director Olivia Kelly, NP, with continuous monitoring.
How often should I get NAD+?
Common protocols: a 'loading phase' of 4–10 infusions over 2–4 weeks, then monthly maintenance. Athletes and executives often continue with weekly or bi-weekly sessions. We'll design a protocol during your consult.
Who benefits most from NAD+?
Anyone over 35 experiencing fatigue, brain fog, poor recovery, or reduced athletic performance. Also strong evidence for anti-aging, addiction recovery support, neuroprotection, and chronic fatigue conditions.
NAD+ IV vs. NAD+ injections — which is better?
IV delivers the largest dose with 100% bioavailability and is the fastest way to raise cellular NAD+, but takes 60–90 minutes. IM/SC injections are a 10-minute option that works well for weekly maintenance between infusions. Most clients load with IV, then maintain with injections.
Do oral NAD+ supplements work as well?
Oral NR and NMN capsules raise NAD+ precursors modestly, but absorption is limited by first-pass liver metabolism. IV NAD+ bypasses digestion entirely, which is why the clinical effect is noticeably larger and faster.
Can I eat before a NAD+ infusion?
Yes — please do. A light meal and good hydration in the two hours before your appointment reduce nausea and lightheadedness during the drip.
Are there side effects?
The most common are transient during infusion: warmth or flushing, chest or abdominal tightness, mild nausea, and headache. All resolve within seconds to minutes when we slow the drip rate. Serious reactions are rare.
Who should not get NAD+?
We screen for pregnancy and breastfeeding, active cancer treatment, significant kidney or liver disease, and certain cardiac conditions. Your consult with our NP determines whether NAD+ is appropriate for you.

- Plan for 60–90 minutes in the chair; bring headphones, a laptop, or a book.
- Skip alcohol for 24 hours before and after to protect the effect.
