About Pharmacy NAD

What this site is

Pharmacy NAD is an independent editorial project that publishes summaries of the peer-reviewed research literature on NAD+ and its precursors. We read the published studies — the human NMN and NR trials, the cardiac and kidney organ work, the mechanism reviews — and digest them into plain-English, cited summaries for general readers.

We are not a clinic. We do not employ clinicians, and we do not provide medical advice. We do not manufacture, sell, or distribute any product. Our work is editorial commentary on publicly available science.

About the name

The word "pharmacy" in this site's name is editorial framing, not a description of services. We are not a pharmacy. Nothing here is dispensed, compounded, prescribed, priced, or sold, and no telehealth or prescribing pathway is offered. The name reflects a position the publisher occupies relative to the literature — a place to read what the research on NAD+ actually says — not a storefront or a clinic.

This distinction matters most on the subject of injectable NAD+, which we treat as an unapproved compounded therapy with a documented contamination hazard, summarizing the evidence rather than directing anyone toward a product.

How we handle the evidence

Every quantitative claim on this site is tied to a specific study, listed on the references page with its DOI or PubMed identifier. We keep three distinctions strict: NAD+ is not the same as its precursors, and we never describe an oral-NMN or oral-NR trial as "taking NAD+"; blood-NAD+ elevation is well demonstrated while hard clinical outcomes in humans remain preliminary, and we say so; and animal results are labeled as animal results. Where the published record is thin or contested — the injectable route, the NMN supplement-status dispute — we mark it plainly rather than smoothing it over.

What you will not find here

You will not find dosing instructions, product recommendations, or a shopping cart. We do not name or endorse any commercial supplement brand, we do not rank products, and we do not link out to vendors. We also do not publish the over-claims that crowd this subject — that NAD+ "reverses aging," "cures" a disease, or "restores" youth. The research does not say those things, so neither do we.

What you will find is a careful reading of the peer-reviewed record: the human NMN and NR trials, the cardiac and kidney animal work, the mechanism reviews, and the documented safety record of the compounded injectable route — each summarized in plain English and traceable to its source. If a claim here is not cited, it should not be here; corrections are welcome.
