🩺 General Guidelines

Read the Instructions Carefully

Always review the instructions provided with your medication. If anything is unclear, contact your GobyMeds provider or support team before injecting.

Dosage and Administration

Your prescription specifies your dose in milliliters (mL) or units. Adhere strictly to the prescribed amount and dosing frequency—typically 1–3 times per week, depending on your plan.

🧰 Preparing for Your Injection

Gather Supplies

  • NAD+ vial

  • Syringe and needle (typically 1 mL insulin syringe)

  • Alcohol pads

  • Sharps disposal container

Wash Your Hands

Use soap and water before handling the vial or syringe.
​

Prepare the Injection Site

Clean your chosen site (abdomen, thigh, or upper arm) with an alcohol pad and allow it to dry completely.
​

Prepare the Vial

  • If it’s your first use, remove the outer metal cap.

  • Wipe the rubber stopper with an alcohol pad and let it dry.

💧 Drawing the Medication

  1. Insert the needle through the vial’s rubber stopper.

  2. Turn the vial and syringe upside down.

  3. Draw the prescribed volume into the syringe.

  4. Remove air bubbles by gently tapping the syringe and pushing the plunger slightly.

💉 Administering the Injection

  1. Pinch the cleaned skin area.

  2. Insert the needle at a 90-degree angle (or as directed by your provider).

  3. Slowly push the plunger to inject.

  4. Remove the needle and release the pinched skin.

  5. Dispose of the syringe safely in a sharps container.

❄️ Storage

  • Refrigerate your NAD+ vial between 36°F–46°F (2°C–8°C) when not in use.

  • Remove the vial from the refrigerator a few minutes before injecting to allow it to reach room temperature.

  • Do not freeze.

  • Store upright with the cap tightly closed.

If traveling, keep your vial in an insulated bag with a cold pack to maintain temperature.

🕒 After Your Injection

  • Record the date, time, and dose in a log.

  • Monitor how you feel and note any side effects such as mild flushing or tingling (these are temporary and normal).

  • Contact your provider if you experience discomfort, dizziness, or prolonged irritation at the injection site.
