NAD+
Delivered as an infusion or injection in most clinic programs. Not a registered medicine for this use in Australia; human outcome data is preliminary.
Read the NAD+ guideWhat the human research on NAD+, its precursors and related compounds actually shows, and what to ask before you pay for a program. Then compare clinics — free to enquire.
Longevity programs span NAD+ and its precursors, IV therapies and emerging compounds. The science is fast-moving and much of it is preliminary — we lay out what the human evidence actually supports.
This is the category with the widest gap between laboratory findings and human outcomes. Much of what is offered commercially rests on cell-culture and animal work, or on small human studies measuring biomarkers rather than health outcomes.
None of that makes the field uninteresting, but it does change what a clinic can honestly claim. Where a program is built on compounded preparations or supplements, the TGA has not assessed them for efficacy, and a prescriber should be able to say which category each element falls into.
Neutral descriptions of the compounds that come up under this goal, with their Australian regulatory position and the strength of the human evidence. Listed so you can follow the conversation — not so you can choose one.
Delivered as an infusion or injection in most clinic programs. Not a registered medicine for this use in Australia; human outcome data is preliminary.
Read the NAD+ guideAn NAD+ precursor taken orally. Its regulatory position in Australia has shifted; human studies to date are small and biomarker-focused.
Read the NMN guideA mitochondrial-derived peptide studied in cell and animal models. Not a registered medicine, and human data is essentially absent.
Read the MOTS-c guideA synthetic peptide with a small and largely older literature, much of it from a single research group. Not a registered medicine in Australia.
Several of these are prescription-only or compounded medicines. Listed for education only — a registered doctor decides what (if anything) is appropriate. Regulatory status changes over time; the ARTG and your prescriber are the current source of truth.

This checklist is general information to help you prepare for an appointment. It is not medical advice and it is not a substitute for individual assessment by a registered practitioner.
Human evidence is preliminary. Most published work looks at biomarkers or short-term measures rather than long-term health outcomes, and results have been mixed. Claims of slowed ageing are not established.
Several are not registered as medicines. Some are available as supplements, some are compounded, and some are research compounds with no approved use. It is reasonable to ask a clinic which category applies to each item in a program.
Because the evidence is early enough to be interpreted very differently. A clinic that can point to the specific studies behind a claim — and describe their limitations — is giving you more to work with than one that cannot.

Listings are information only. Verification confirms a clinic’s prescriber is registered with AHPRA — not an endorsement of treatment. Prescribing decisions are made solely by a registered practitioner. How we verify
A plain-English email guide to Anti-Ageing & Longevity: what the evidence supports, what is registered versus compounded, and what to ask before you start.
Educational content only. No clinic receives your email from this form, and we never send prescribing or treatment recommendations. Unsubscribe anytime.
Information only, not medical advice. Get Enhanced is a directory. It does not prescribe, supply, endorse or recommend any medicine or treatment, and nothing on this page is an offer to supply a therapeutic good.
Prescribing decisions are made solely by a registered health practitioner following individual assessment. Compounds described above include prescription-only and compounded medicines; compounded preparations are not assessed by the TGA for quality, safety or efficacy in the way registered products are.
We check the AHPRA register — this is not an endorsement by AHPRA or of any treatment. Read the full medical disclaimer or how we verify clinics.
