Inner Balance review
The only sublingual NAD+ here, and its only public price is a floor
"From $183/mo" is the single figure anywhere on the site, and the quiz that would produce a real one ends at a name, email and phone form.
How this site makes money
Plain version: a handful of the outbound links here are affiliate or referral links. Follow one, start a treatment or buy a product, and we may earn a commission — your price stays exactly the same. That money pays for the research, and what we write about any product — and the price you pay — are the same either way. Want the specifics? Read the full disclosure.
at_a_glance
- price
- "From $183/mo" on the NAD+ page, beside "Cancel anytime", "Free & fast shipping" and "Clinician-approved prescription".
- what you pay
- Not published beyond the floor. "From $183/mo" is the only figure on the site, and the nine-step quiz that would settle a plan ends at a name, email and phone capture with no price or checkout screen in front of it.
- pharmacy
- A category without a name. The product page states the tablet is compounded in the USA by a national 503A pharmacy and claims that pharmacy is certified by NABP, LegitScript and PCAB, with APIs from FDA-inspected facilities and third-party potency testing. No pharmacy is named anywhere on the site, so none of it can be checked against a licence.
- states
- Not published. There is no state list, and the NAD+ quiz never asks for a state before its contact form. The marketing line that the founder is licensed in fifty states is a claim about one clinician's licensure, not about where the service actually ships.

- Ranked #15 of 19 on our NAD+ provider index.
verdict
The short version
Inner Balance sells the one genuinely different NAD+ route on this index: a daily sublingual dissolvable tablet at 200 mg a serving, marketed explicitly as needle-free against the IV and injectable products everything else here sells. The consult, unlimited clinical follow-up and shipping are stated as included, no labs are required to start, and it is the only entry on this board that states a pharmacy category — a national 503A pharmacy — while claiming NABP, PCAB and LegitScript certification for it. Two things sit hard against that. The only figure it publishes anywhere is "From $183/mo", and the nine-step quiz that would produce your actual plan asks about symptoms, age and priorities and then stops at a contact capture rather than a price. And its refund policy names NAD+ specifically among the products refunds do not apply to.
evidence
What the evidence for this route shows
Compounded NAD+ is not an FDA-approved product, and the route sold here has no randomised human trial behind it: there is no published study showing that subcutaneous or intranasal NAD+ raises blood NAD+ in people, let alone that it improves energy, focus or any aging endpoint. What the clinical literature actually supports is the oral precursor NR, which does raise blood NAD+ in controlled trials — a different molecule by a different route. This route needs one sentence more than the others, because it is the one most likely to be mistaken for the evidenced one. A sublingual NAD+ tablet is NOT the oral precursor the trials used. NR and NMN are precursors your cells build NAD+ from, and they have randomised human trials behind them; NAD+ itself is a far larger, charged molecule with no published human study showing that swallowing it or dissolving it under the tongue raises blood NAD+ at all. Needle-free is a real advantage over an injection on comfort. It is not an advantage on evidence.
pricing
What it actually costs
- advertised
- "From $183/mo" on the NAD+ page, beside "Cancel anytime", "Free & fast shipping" and "Clinician-approved prescription".
- you pay
- Not published beyond the floor. "From $183/mo" is the only figure on the site, and the nine-step quiz that would settle a plan ends at a name, email and phone capture with no price or checkout screen in front of it.
- the catch
- A floor with the ladder behind an intake. The word from is doing real work here: no second figure appears anywhere on the site, and the quiz that would produce one asks about symptoms, age and priorities and then stops at a contact form. There is a second clause worth knowing — if you fill the prescription at your own pharmacy, Inner Balance reserves the right to keep charging the monthly service fee, with the pharmacy billed to you on top of it.
Other money you will meet
- Free shipping, stated on the product page; HSA/FSA eligible, no insurance billed
- Fill the prescription at your own pharmacy and the monthly service charge continues, with the pharmacy an additional cost
- NAD+ is named in the refund policy among the products refunds do not apply to
- Refunds are limited to one per customer and are not processed automatically on cancellation

fit
Who this is and is not for
Buy it if
- You want NAD+ without a needle or a nasal spray and have ruled the injectable routes out
- You want a stated pharmacy category rather than an unqualified reference to a network
- You want the consult and unlimited clinical follow-up inside the price, with no labs to start
Look elsewhere if
- You want a price before handing over your name, email and phone number
- You want a refund route: this product is named in the list refunds do not apply to
- You want to know whether it ships to your state — nothing is published
- You want the route with the human evidence: dissolving NAD+ is not taking an oral precursor
included
What is inside the price
- consult
- Yes — "Clinician-approved prescription" and "Unlimited clinical follow-up" are printed on the product page, with a licensed provider reviewing the intake.
- labs
- Not required, and said plainly: the page states there are no labs or appointments required upfront, and the FAQ carries a question explaining why not.
- follow-ups
- "Unlimited clinical follow-up", stated on the product page. No separate follow-up fee is published.
- human support
- Clinician follow-up by message. No dietitian, nurse or coaching programme is described.
- supplies
- None needed — the product is a sublingual tablet, which is rather the point of it.
- shipping
- Free and fast, stated on the product page. No carrier or timeframe is published.
the_knock
What they would rather you skipped
Inner Balance publishes exactly one number about a product it wants a subscription for, and that number is a floor. "From $183/mo" is the only figure anywhere on the site; the nine-step quiz that would produce a real plan asks about symptoms, age, pregnancy and priorities and then ends at a name, email and phone capture with no price screen in front of it — so the price is what you get for handing over your contact details. Beside that sits the refund policy, which lists the products refunds do not apply to and names NAD+ in it, alongside a clause letting the monthly service charge continue if you fill the prescription at your own pharmacy. And the page works hard on a comparison it should not be allowed to win outright: it positions the tablet against IV and injectable NAD+ on convenience, which is fair, and lets a reader carry that over into evidence, where no route on this board has any.
And the rest
- "From $183/mo" is the only public figure, and the quiz ends at a contact form rather than a price
- NAD+ is named in the refund policy among the products refunds do not apply to
- No state availability is published anywhere on the site
- The 503A pharmacy is claimed but never named, so none of its certifications is checkable
- The monthly service charge can continue if you fill the prescription at your own pharmacy
