Summary
Someone who was still working tried a series of NAD and glutathione infusions in October 2023. The first, 250 mg NAD plus glutathione, brought intense flu-like symptoms, a severe migraine, body aches and extreme fatigue that kept them off work. An IV with Myers cocktail support caused no symptoms, but a 500 mg NAD infusion without support triggered violent shaking and flu-like symptoms again, and they stopped the infusions.
