Study of NiagenĀ®+ and NAD+ Injections for Healthy Aging

This study is looking at how well different forms of vitamin B3, called NiagenĀ® (nicotinamide riboside) and NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), are tolerated when given as injections. Researchers want to see if these injections cause discomfort. You might be able to join if you are between 40 and 65 years old, in good general health, and live near the study site. The study aims to understand how people feel after receiving these injections, specifically looking at pain and discomfort right after the shot. The current recruitment status is unclear, but 70 people are planned to enroll.

  • McGill Pain Questionnaire1 minute after injection is complete

    The MPQ contains 78 pain related terms to identify the quantity and type of pain experienced. This multi-dimensional tool has three components; sensory, cognitive, emotional. Higher scores indicate higher levels of pain.

  • Subjective Discomfort1 minute after injection is complete

    Subjective discomfort is measured using open-ended questions to qualitatively assess participant comfort during injection.
