NAD+ therapy in Tampa

What NAD+ is and how it's used

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a naturally occurring coenzyme central to how your cells produce energy and carry out repair and metabolic processes. Levels are thought to decline with age, which is why it has drawn interest in longevity and wellness settings. It's typically offered as an infusion or, in some cases, injections, along with oral precursor supplements. Patients often ask about it hoping to support energy, mental clarity, and recovery. We frame these as goals people pursue, because human trials on many of these outcomes are limited, and marketing has run well ahead of the evidence.

Who considers it

People who ask about NAD+ are frequently focused on energy, cognitive sharpness, recovery, or general longevity and want a supervised way to explore it. Before anything, Dr. Saleh reviews your history, symptoms, medications, and goals, because fatigue and brain fog often have identifiable, treatable causes worth ruling out first, such as anemia, thyroid issues, sleep disorders, or medication effects. NAD+ is not a treatment for a specific disease, and it is not right for everyone. If a conventional workup is the better path, we'll tell you. Candidacy is a clinical decision we make together with realiztic framing.

How a supervised protocol works

We don't run one-size-fits-all drips. If NAD+ is reasonable for you, Dr. Saleh designs an individualized protocol, explains the route, dosing, and schedule, and sets specific goals with a defined reassessment point rather than an indefinite series. Infusions are administered slowly, since going too fast commonly causes uncomfortable but transient sensations like flushing, chest tightness, or nausea, and we pace and monitor accordingly. Follow-up lets us judge whether it's genuinely helping and adjust or stop. Supervision means a physician is accountable for safety, watching for reactions, and honest about discontinuing if the benefit isn't there.

Safety & honest limits of the evidence

Honestly: much of the excitement around NAD+ rests on laboratory and early research, and robust human clinical evidence for many advertised anti-aging and performance benefits is still limited. NAD+ therapy is not an FDA-approved treatment for aging or the conditions it's often marketed for. Infusion-related side effects such as flushing, nausea, or chest tightness are common when given too quickly and are managed by slowing the rate; overall long-term safety data is incomplete. Product quality depends on proper sourcing and preparation, another reason for physician oversight. We won't oversell it. If it isn't clearly helping you, we stop.
