The NAD+ price in the UAE is set by the milligrams a laboratory measures in the vial, the purity on the batch certificate and the form of the compound, and SHLabz adds AED 15 for UAE delivery, or nothing over AED 350.

NAD+ sits slightly apart from the rest of a peptide catalogue. It is not a peptide at all, but a dinucleotide coenzyme. So the usual peptide shortcuts, such as net peptide content, need adjusting before you compare one listing with another.
This guide explains what sets the price of NAD+, how to turn any listing into an honest cost per milligram, and which delivery and payment terms change the total in the UAE. We do not quote product prices here, because they change. Instead, the current price for each vial size is on the NAD+ product page.
Quick answer: The NAD+ price in the UAE depends on vial size, measured content, purity, the form of the compound and delivery. Divide the price by the measured milligrams on the batch certificate, and never compare NAD+ with precursors such as NMN or NR on price alone. SHLabz delivers in the UAE for AED 15, free over AED 350, same-day in standard zones before 12:00 and next-day for later orders.
What NAD+ Is, and Why It Matters for the Price
NAD+ is β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide: nicotinamide and adenine nucleotides joined through their phosphate groups. Its molecular formula is C21H27N7O14P2, its molecular weight is 663.4 g/mol, and its CAS number is 53-84-9.
Because it is not a peptide, NAD+ is not made by peptide synthesis. As a result, its production cost, its typical vial sizes and its impurity profile all differ from those of a peptide. So the NAD+ price in the UAE should be compared only with other NAD+ listings, not with the peptides beside it in a catalogue.
NAD+ Versus Its Precursors
NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) and NR (nicotinamide riboside) are different molecules. They are studied as precursors that cells convert into NAD+. Therefore, a cheaper milligram of NMN or NR is not a cheaper milligram of NAD+. Check the name, formula and CAS number before comparing.
The Factors Behind the NAD+ Price in the UAE
- Vial size. Larger vials usually cost less per milligram, though that is a tendency, not a rule.
- Measured content. The mass a laboratory actually found, which may differ from the label.
- Form. A salt form carries extra mass from its counter-ion, so less of each milligram is NAD+ itself.
- Purity. The HPLC main peak as a share of everything detected.
- Testing. An independent report for every batch costs money, and it belongs in the price.
Put simply, two listings with the same label weight can hold different amounts of NAD+. The certificate is how you find out.
Calculating the NAD+ Price per mg in the UAE
The figures below are invented round numbers in plain units, for illustration only; none is a SHLabz price.
- Headline. A 500 mg vial at 250 units works out at 0.50 per mg.
- Purity. At 98% purity, that vial holds 490 mg of NAD+, so about 0.51 per mg.
- Content. If the certificate measures 470 mg, divide by 470 instead: about 0.53 per mg.
- Delivery. Add any delivery fee before dividing. Over AED 350 in the UAE, there is none.
So compare suppliers at the same step, with both sides of the division describing the same material. Our price per mg guide walks through the method in full, and the same logic applies to NAD+.
The NAD+ Format and Its Price in the UAE
SHLabz lists NAD+ as lyophilised powder in a sealed vial. Sealed, it is stable at room temperature when kept dry and dark. After reconstitution, keep it at 2–8 °C. Bacteriostatic water is sold separately in 3 ml and 10 ml vials, so include it in the total if your lab needs it.
Because NAD+ ships as a sealed vial, it can travel across the GCC as well as within the UAE. By contrast, the pens and nasal sprays elsewhere in our range hold solutions that belong at 2–8 °C, so they stay in the UAE.
What the Literature Studies
NAD+ is one of the most studied molecules in cell biology. Specifically, a 2021 review in Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology by Covarrubias, Perrone, Grozio and Verdin examined NAD+ metabolism: how cells make it, which enzymes consume it, and how measured levels change with age in experimental systems.
Meanwhile, a 2019 review in Cell Metabolism by Lautrup and colleagues examined NAD+ in brain ageing and neurodegenerative disease models. That said, both are reviews of laboratory and preclinical research, not evidence for any human use. SHLabz supplies NAD+ for laboratory research only. Our NAD+ research guide summarises the field, and our SS-31 guide covers another compound studied in mitochondrial research.
Delivery on Top of the NAD+ Price in the UAE
SHLabz charges AED 15 to deliver anywhere in the UAE, and nothing on orders over AED 350. Orders placed before 12:00 UAE time on a working day arrive the same day in our standard delivery zones, and orders placed after 12:00 arrive the next day. Remote areas take 1–3 working days. We process orders Monday to Friday, except on UAE public holidays, so message us with your area if you need a firm answer.
Cold Chain in the Capital’s Heat
Every UAE order travels in an insulated pouch with frozen gel packs. Sealed NAD+ powder does not strictly need it. However, Abu Dhabi has recorded 49.3 °C, and its mean daily maximum in August is 43.4 °C. So we hold the whole range to the same pack, because it removes a variable. Let a cold vial reach room temperature before opening, so condensation does not form on the glass. Our storage guide explains why.
NAD+ Across the GCC
NAD+ vials ship to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and Jordan in 2–4 working days, for AED 60 or free over AED 2,500. Import requirements and duties are the recipient’s responsibility.
From Order to Door in the UAE
- Check the compound. First, confirm the listing is NAD+, not a precursor.
- Check the certificate. Next, open the NAD+ report on our lab results page.
- Compare. Then divide by the measured content for each vial size.
- Order before noon. After that, order before 12:00 on a working day for same-day delivery in standard zones.
- Receive. Match the batch number on the vial to its certificate.
- Store. Finally, keep the sealed vial dry and dark, and refrigerate after reconstitution.
Paying the NAD+ Price in the UAE
UAE orders can be paid by card, Apple Pay, Tamara, cryptocurrency, or cash or card on delivery. Tamara is available in the UAE and Saudi Arabia and splits the total without changing it. In addition, optional shipping protection costs AED 24.99 plus 5% of the order value; it stays unticked unless you choose it.

Regulation Behind the NAD+ Price in the UAE
Federal Decree-Law No. 38 of 2024 governs medical products and pharmaceutical establishments in the UAE, and it took effect on 2 January 2025. The Emirates Drug Establishment (EDE) is the federal body that acts on unapproved medicines. In July 2026, the EDE acted against 71 sources selling unapproved peptide products and referred 14 influencers to the National Media Office. The Dubai Health Authority issued a circular (CIR-2026-00000107, 29 July 2026) on handling peptide products in healthcare facilities.
A “research use only” label describes presentation, not registration. So a vial of NAD+ sold with energy, longevity or wellness promises is a warning sign at any price. Our article on whether research peptides are legal covers the wider position.
Reading One Certificate
SHLabz publishes an NAD+ certificate on our lab results page. Janoshik Analytical issues each report with a batch number, test date, purity, measured content and a “Verify” link to its own record. For a worked example of the figures, take our GHK-Cu 100 mg batch SHCU100-082026: HPLC purity 99.713%, analysed on 25 August 2026, measured content 86.10 mg.
So for that vial, the honest divisor is 86.10 mg, not 100. The same applies to NAD+: divide by the measured content on your batch’s report, not the label. The lab results page now lists 13 products across 16 batches, and all batch figures are in the open SHLabz Purity Index. Our certificate guide explains each line.
An NAD+ Price Checklist for the UAE
- No certificate. First, a price without a batch report is a price for an unknown.
- Precursor confusion. Next, NMN or NR sold beside NAD+ is a different molecule.
- No form stated. A salt form changes how much of each milligram is NAD+.
- No measured content. The label weight is not the mass in the vial.
- No named laboratory. Then ask who tested it; an unnamed test cannot be verified.
- Overseas stock. Customs and transit add cost and delay.
- Blank labels. Every vial should carry its name and batch.
- Wellness claims. Finally, energy or longevity promises are a reason to walk away.
