OPTML compounded NAD+ injection vial
Cellular co-factor

Compounded NAD+

Subcutaneous nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. NAD+ is the co-factor that hundreds of cellular enzymes rely on to convert nutrients to energy and to drive DNA repair pathways. Levels decline with age in published research.

Who this is for

Built for adults who’ve already done the basics.

The Longevity Protocol is reviewed and prescribed by a U.S.-licensed physician based on your intake, history, and (in most cases) baseline labs. It’s not for everyone — here’s where it tends to fit.

01

Adults 35-65 whose sleep, recovery, and energy have plateaued.

You’ve dialed in nutrition, training, and bloodwork basics. Your day-to-day recovery and sleep depth have quietly declined over a few years, and you want a physician-supervised next step.

02

Patients with documented age-related GH-axis decline.

If your provider has reviewed baseline labs (including IGF-1) and confirmed a decline consistent with age, a sermorelin-based protocol can be part of a longitudinal plan. Lab work is strongly recommended before starting.

03

People who want a single physician-led longevity protocol, not a stack of supplements.

One intake, one provider, one monthly shipment, one place to call. Both medications are compounded and prescribed under the same plan, so titration and follow-up are coordinated.

OPTML prescribes NAD+ and sermorelin only under clinical indications reviewed by a U.S.-licensed physician. We do not prescribe for athletic performance, bodybuilding, or aesthetic purposes. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved.

Mechanism reference · scroll to see the shift

Watch the same six systems go from declining to restored.

Between ages 30 and 60, cellular NAD+ drops ~50% and the endogenous GH-axis pulse amplitude attenuates. Keep scrolling — watch the six systems the protocol is designed to address shift from red (age-related baseline) to green (mechanism target).

Cellular NAD+ availability NAD+ Restored
Mitochondrial ATP production NAD+ Supported
GH-axis pulse amplitude Sermorelin Reinforced
Slow-wave sleep depth Sermorelin Deeper
DNA-repair signaling (PARP / sirtuin) NAD+ Active
GH-axis & recovery signaling Sermorelin Supported

Mechanism reference. The six systems above describe targets the protocol is designed to address, drawn from published research on NAD+ co-factor availability (Verdin, Science, 2015; Yoshino, Cell Metab, 2018) and GHRH-axis support (Vitiello, Sleep, 2006; Khorram, 1997). Compounded NAD+ and compounded sermorelin are not FDA-approved; the FDA does not verify the safety, effectiveness, or quality of compounded drugs. Not a prediction of personal outcomes. Individual response varies.

After you order

Expected time from order to your door.

Your medication is not sitting on a shelf waiting for you. It is prepared for you, to your prescription, after a physician has read your file — and that is the reason for the wait. Here is where every day goes.

7–10 days
from ordering to it arriving, for a straightforward protocol. Roughly 5–7 days for the physician and the pharmacy, then 2–3 days in transit.
Your online visitabout 10 minutes

Done from your kitchen table, not a waiting room. No appointment to book, no clinic to drive to, no time off work. You answer questions about your health and your goals, and that is the whole of your part in it.

A physician actually reads your filethe slow part, on purpose

A U.S.-licensed physician goes through what you submitted, and your lab work where your protocol calls for it. This is a real clinical decision made by a real person, which is why it takes days rather than minutes — and it is the step you would least want us to rush.

Some protocols need a further conversation, or bloodwork first. TRT, enclomiphene and HRT commonly do.

Your medication is made for younot off a shelf

Once a physician approves it, your prescription goes to a state-licensed, FDA-registered 503A compounding pharmacy, where it is prepared for you individually under USP <797> sterility standards.

That is what compounding means: it is made to your prescription after it is written, rather than manufactured in advance and picked from stock. It is also why this is measured in days. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved.

It ships to your door2–3 days

Insulated and temperature-controlled, in plain packaging with no medical branding on the outside. Shipping is free and already in your price, and tracking is emailed when it leaves.

The one thing that holds an order upworth reading

An order pauses if something is still outstanding on your side — an intake form you have not finished, ID verification, or lab work. It is the most common reason an order goes quiet, and the system cannot always alert you when it happens.

So if it has been quiet for a couple of days, check your email and your patient portal before anything else. That is nearly always where the missing piece is, and clearing it starts your order moving again immediately. Full checklist here.

Ordering on a Friday or at the weekend

Orders are processed seven days a week. What is not covered at weekends is anything needing a person — a stuck form, an ID check, a question for your provider. Order late on a Friday and you will likely hear more at the start of the week.

How to check where you are

Your patient portal shows the live stage of your order. If your purchase appears there and you have the confirmation email, you are in the queue and nothing is wrong.

These are typical ranges, not guarantees, and delays do happen. Something look wrong? Email info@optml.health and a person will pick it up. For anything clinical, message your physician in the portal. For emergencies, call 911.

Questions

Frequently asked.

What is The Longevity Protocol?

The Longevity Protocol pairs two compounded protocols — subcutaneous NAD+ and sermorelin (a GHRH analog) — under one physician-led plan. The combination is intended to support cellular co-factor availability and the body’s own growth-hormone axis. Always reviewed and prescribed by a licensed U.S. physician. Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved.

Are NAD+ and sermorelin FDA-approved?

Compounded NAD+ and compounded sermorelin prepared for individual patient prescriptions are not FDA-approved. The FDA does not verify the safety, effectiveness, or quality of compounded drugs. Both compounded preparations dispensed through OPTML are prepared by FDA-registered 503A pharmacies under USP <797> sterility standards.

Who is this protocol prescribed for?

The Longevity Protocol is reviewed by a U.S.-licensed physician for adults with documented age-related GH-axis decline and longevity-oriented goals. OPTML does not prescribe sermorelin or NAD+ for athletic performance, bodybuilding, or aesthetic purposes. Baseline labs are strongly recommended before starting.

Do I need lab work first?

Strongly recommended. A baseline panel is advisable, including IGF-1, A1C, lipid markers, and inflammatory markers. The OPTML Apex Panel covers all of these (and many more) in one draw and is the most commonly paired baseline.

How much does it cost?

$348/month, billed monthly, cancel anytime. Or $988 every three months (a single quarterly shipment, save $56 vs paying monthly). Pricing is the same in every state OPTML serves. HSA/FSA eligible. No insurance is involved.

How is it shipped?

Both compounded medications, syringes, alcohol pads, and a sharps container arrive together. Free discreet shipping, included in your price. NAD+ ships in temperature-controlled packaging where required. Discreet packaging from our 503A pharmacy partners.

Can I cancel or pause?

Yes. Both monthly and 3-month plans can be canceled or paused anytime from your patient portal. No contracts. Refunds for unshipped medication are issued per OPTML’s standard policy.
