Quick Intro

VEI Clinic Apgujeong is an English-friendly internal-medicine clinic in Gangnam offering same-day supportive therapies with doctor oversight. We’re on the 3rd floor of Beneheim City, 162 Apgujeong-ro, a short walk from Apgujeong Station (Exit 5).


Note: You wrote “NADS+.” The medical term is NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). We’ll use NAD+ throughout for accuracy.

What Are NAD+ Injections?

NAD+ is a coenzyme involved in cellular energy and DNA-repair processes. In clinical settings, NAD+ may be given as an intramuscular (IM) injection or as an IV infusion after a brief medical check. These services are positioned as supportive/wellness care—not cures for disease or substitutes for indicated treatments. (General biology of NAD+: HMS/Harvard resources; ongoing research interest.)


Who They May Suit (Common Reasons People Ask)

  • Feeling run-down after long flights or intense work weeks
  • Post-illness recovery when oral intake has been low
  • Interest in adjunctive nutrient support while optimizing sleep, diet, and stress

Your physician confirms candidacy and the most appropriate route (IM vs IV) case-by-case.


Evidence & Expectations (Read Before You Book)

  • Evidence remains limited for wellness uses. Reviews and summaries continue to evaluate safety and effectiveness of NAD+/NADH in humans, with a need for higher-quality trials for many marketed claims.
  • Popular write-ups highlight biologic plausibility (NAD+ declines with age), but emphasize that proof of clinical benefit from injections/infusions is not established outside specific research contexts.
  • Media and medical summaries on NAD+ for addiction or anti-aging consistently note insufficient clinical evidence and call for controlled trials; some small or preliminary studies exist but are not definitive.

Bottom line: Some people report feeling better after hydration and nutrient support, but results vary, and this is not a treatment for serious disease.


Safety First (Important)

  • Sterility & sourcing matter. The U.S. FDA has reminded compounders to use ingredients suitable for sterile compounding after receiving adverse-event reports with injectable NAD+ products (e.g., severe chills, shaking, vomiting, fatigue) consistent with endotoxin contamination. Proper sourcing and medical oversight are essential.
  • General IV/IM risks: vein/IM-site irritation, flushing, dizziness, nausea; more serious complications are uncommon in supervised settings but are possible with poor sterility or technique. Mainstream medical sources stress that benefit evidence is limited and clean technique matters for any infusion.
If you have chest pain, severe shortness of breath, confusion, fainting, fever with chills, or signs of infection, seek urgent care.

Tell the doctor if you have: kidney, heart, or liver disease; are pregnant/breastfeeding; have significant drug allergies; or take anticoagulants/diuretics/other prescriptions.


IM vs IV (What We Consider)

  • IM injection: quick visit; avoids an IV line; dosing may be lower per session.
  • IV infusion: slower administration; allows titration if symptoms (e.g., flushing/nausea) appear; requires line placement and monitoring.

Your clinician will recommend a route based on goals, history, and tolerability.


Visit Flow (Typically 45–90 Minutes)

  1. Check-in & history → symptoms/goals, meds, allergies, recent travel/illness.
  2. Focused exam → vitals; tests if needed.
  3. Plan & consent → candidacy confirmed, route/dose selected, transparent pricing reviewed.
  4. Injection or IV session → monitored; adjustments made for comfort/safety.
  5. Discharge guidance → simple after-care in clear English; follow-up plan if indicated.


After-Care Tips

  • Hydrate (water or oral rehydration) the rest of the day.
  • Eat a light, balanced meal (protein + complex carbs + produce).
  • Rest if you feel woozy; resume normal activity as you feel steady.
  • Follow up if symptoms persist or worsen.


What to Bring

  • Photo ID (passport if visiting)
  • Medication & allergy list
  • Any recent labs/test results
  • A brief symptom/goal timeline

FAQs

Is NAD+ injection an anti-aging treatment?
There’s biologic rationale to study NAD+ pathways, but clinical benefits from injections/infusions remain unproven for anti-aging at this time.

Is it safe?
In supervised medical settings, most people tolerate IM/IV administration, but risks exist—especially if products aren’t sterile. The FDA has reported adverse events tied to contaminated injectable NAD+ from some sources, underscoring the need for proper compounding and oversight.

Can it help with addiction or mood?
Claims exist, but evidence is insufficient; some small/preliminary studies and media reviews call for better trials. We will not replace proven therapies.

Injection or IV—which is better?
Depends on your goals, history, and tolerability. Your clinician will tailor the route case-by-case.

How quickly will I feel different?
Some feel more hydrated/steady within hours to a day; responses vary and may relate to rest, nutrition, and hydration.
