NAD+ Cream (30 mL)

NAD⁺ Cream is a topical formulation designed to deliver nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) directly to the skin. It is often used as part of skin care regimens to support hydration, cellular repair, and skin health. NAD⁺ plays an essential role in energy production and antioxidant protection, and applying it through the skin is believed to help nourish and revitalize damaged or aging skin. The cream is typically recommended by healthcare professionals or skin specialists to complement other treatments.

NAD⁺ helps regulate vital processes within skin cells by promoting energy metabolism and supporting the repair of oxidative damage caused by environmental stressors. It assists in the activation of enzymes that protect against free radicals and enhance cellular regeneration. By improving mitochondrial function, NAD⁺ supports collagen synthesis, skin elasticity, and moisture retention. These effects may help reduce signs of aging, improve skin texture, and restore a healthy, radiant appearance.

This cream should not be used by individuals with known allergies to NAD⁺ or other ingredients in the formulation. People with sensitive skin, eczema, or active skin infections should consult a healthcare provider before use to avoid irritation. It is also advised to patch test the product before full application, especially for those with allergies or a history of skin reactions. Avoid applying on broken or inflamed skin unless directed by a professional.

Most users tolerate NAD⁺ Cream without issues, but some may experience mild redness, itching, or tingling at the application site, especially during initial use. In rare cases, allergic reactions like swelling, rash, or severe irritation may occur. Discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider if any persistent or concerning symptoms arise. Regular monitoring and following recommended usage help reduce the risk of adverse effects.

The effects of NAD⁺ Cream on pregnant or breastfeeding individuals have not been thoroughly studied. As a precaution, it is recommended to avoid using the product during pregnancy and lactation unless approved by a healthcare professional. Safer alternatives for supporting skin health should be considered, and medical advice should be sought to ensure the well-being of both mother and child.

Store this medication in a refrigerator between 36°F to 46°F (2°C – 8°C). Do not freeze. Protect from light. Keep all medicine out of the reach of children. Throw away any medicine after the beyond use date. Do not flush unused medications or pour down a sink or drain.
