Key Takeaway
How to reconstitute nad+ step by step. We cover the research, practical guidance, and what to discuss with your physician.
How to reconstitute nad+ step by step is a straightforward process that takes about 5 minutes. You'll add bacteriostatic water to the lyophilized powder vial, let it dissolve without shaking, and store the result in the refrigerator. Getting the ratio right is important for accurate dosing. Here is exactly how to do it.
What You Need
- NAD+ lyophilized vial
- Bacteriostatic water (BAC water) with 0.9% benzyl alcohol
- Insulin syringes (1 mL / 100 units)
- Alcohol swabs
- A clean, flat surface
Use bacteriostatic water, not sterile water, for multi-dose vials. The benzyl alcohol preservative prevents bacterial growth with repeated needle insertions .
Step-by-Step Process
- Inspect the vial: Check that the powder is white or off-white and dry
- Clean vial tops: Swab both the NAD+ vial and BAC water vial with alcohol pads
- Draw BAC water: Pull your desired volume into an insulin syringe
- Add water slowly: Insert the needle and drip water down the inside glass wall. Do NOT squirt directly onto the powder
- Let it dissolve: Set the vial on a flat surface for 2 to 5 minutes. Gently roll between your palms if needed. Never shake
- Label and refrigerate: Write the date, contents, and concentration on the vial. Store at 36 to 46 degrees F
Dosing Math and Storage
Once reconstituted, calculate your injection volume based on your concentration. For example, if you add 2 mL of BAC water to a 10 mg vial, each 0.1 mL (10 units on an insulin syringe) contains 0.5 mg.
