$299/month vs. $300–$800 per visit
That's about $10 a day for a physician-directed protocol — one transparent monthly price, ongoing monitoring, and no chair time. That's the difference.
IV vs. at-home, answered
Is at-home NAD+ as effective as an IV drip?
Subcutaneous NAD+ delivers a steady, physician-titrated dose without the per-session cost and clinic time of an IV. Many patients prefer it because a physician monitors and adjusts the protocol over time, rather than repeating identical drips.
Why is ElevateMD so much less than an IV clinic?
IV clinics price per session and per chair-hour. ElevateMD ships a compounded protocol you self-administer at home for one transparent monthly price of $299, with a physician behind it, and no facility overhead per dose.
Do oral NAD+ supplements work as well?
Oral NAD+ precursors are largely broken down before reaching your cells, and there is no physician oversight. Subcutaneous, physician-supervised NAD+ is the more clinical approach.
