LOS ANGELES– ChromaDex Corp. (NASDAQ:CDXC), the global authority on nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) research with a focus on healthy aging, is excited to announce the second wave of intravenous (IV) wellness clinics that will offer pharmaceutical-grade Niagen® (nicotinamide riboside chloride or NRC), branded Niagen+, in intravenous (IV) and injectable forms. This expansion follows the successful debut of limited quantities of Niagen IV and injections in select clinics earlier last month.
U.S. FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facility, Wells Pharma of Houston, will compound and distribute pharmaceutical-grade Niagen, which will be available as Niagen IV and injections exclusively to the clinics with a prescription.
“We are happy to see the continued interest and rapid adoption of Niagen+ among top wellness clinics and look forward to announcing more locations soon,” said Eric Huynh, Vice President of Business Development at ChromaDex.
ChromaDex’s flagship ingredient, Niagen, is available in oral and IV forms and clinically proven to elevate NAD+ levels, a coenzyme vital to cell health involved in cellular energy production and DNA repair. The IV and injection formulations support the rapid and efficient delivery of Niagen. Outperforming NAD+ IV in the pilot clinical study, Niagen IV offered superior tolerability, a 75% shorter infusion time, and resulted in a statistically significant 20% increase in whole blood NAD+ levels three hours post-infusion, as measured by NAD+ dried blood spot tests (MedRxiv).
Impact Health Medical, Fountain Life, The Remedy Room, and VYVE Wellness celebrate the launch of Niagen+:
- Halland Chen, MD, Double Board Certified physician and Founder of Impact Health Medical, stated, “As a researcher deeply focused on NAD+ therapy and Regenerative Medicine, I am excited about the introduction of Niagen IV. This innovative product holds significant potential in the realm of healthspan and wellness optimization. By enhancing cellular repair, Niagen IV represents a groundbreaking advancement in our ability to support and enhance the body’s natural defenses. I am confident that Niagen IV will become an essential tool in the pursuit of longevity and overall health, providing patients with a more comfortable and effective option compared to traditional NAD+ infusions.”
- Helen Messier, PhD, MD, Chief Medical and Science Officer at Fountain Life, commented, “At Fountain Life we are always searching for the latest evidence-based therapeutics to promote health optimization and longevity. Thus we are excited to partner with ChromaDex as we are impressed with the extensive development and research done on Niagen IV to minimize the side effects of IV NAD+ and in turn maximize the absorption.”
- Mignonne C. Mary, MD, Founder and Medical Director of The Remedy Room in New Orleans said, “We have utilized NAD IV therapy for 11 years and are excited to introduce Niagen IV in partnership with ChromaDex, a cutting-edge advancement. With Niagen IV, our aim is to minimize side effects and enhance mitochondrial function in the most efficacious and efficient manner possible.” (The Remedy Room was featured in ChromaDex’s initial clinic press release).
- Will Haas, MD, MBA, Medical Director at VYVE Wellness, noted, “VYVE Wellness is excited to add Niagen IV into our advanced regenerative treatment protocols. It’s a game changer for the IV nutrient therapy space! All the benefits of NAD+ and more without the severe side effects. ChromaDex has strengthened the toolbox for enhancing mitochondrial health and overall wellness.”
The inclusion of these new clinics marks another significant step in ChromaDex’s mission to make Niagen more accessible to those seeking innovative health solutions. The 14 new clinics are expected to roll out Niagen IV and injections in the coming weeks.
