ANSWER IN BRIEF

Explore custom longevity oral strips through ingredient compatibility, realistic dose loading, sensory design, 500-box pilot planning, and protective packaging.

## What this category is for

Longevity buyers already spend on capsules, powders and NAD+ infusions, so a founder in this category is selling a format, not a discovery. The retail benchmark is 100 mg NAD+ per sublingual strip (Holte, Sven Labs, Connect Wellness, all 30 to a pack), and that number is close to the practical ceiling for one film; reaching it means a larger, thicker strip and a dissolve time the brand accepts. The regulatory story moved in 2025: FDA's letters of September 29, 2025 concluded NMN is not excluded from the dietary supplement definition, reversing its 2022 position, while leaving NMN a new dietary ingredient that still needs a premarket notification unless the material comes from a supplier with an accepted filing. Check the supplier's paperwork before the brief.

Load and stability set the rest. NMN's studied doses of 250 to 500 mg a day are beyond one strip; our development target is 150 mg per strip, so a study-dose product means two or three strips. NAD+ and NMN are moisture- and heat-sensitive, which puts foil sachets and a defined storage condition at the center of the stability plan. Resveratrol is bitter and light-sensitive, and a fast-melt tablet reference lists 30 mg. CoQ10 is oil-soluble and orange; 100 mg fits in one strip with higher-load systems reaching 150 mg. The strip will not look white, and the appearance spec should say so.

## Actives brands ask about

Actives brands ask about in this category (label context, not a StripWorks guarantee)

| Active | Common on labels | In a film | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) | 100 mg per strip on Sven Labs, Holte and Connect Wellness sublingual NAD+ strips (30 per pack) | Custom-scoped by ingredient identity, supplier documentation, stability and dose. 100 mg fills one strip and needs a thicker film. | [source](https://svenlabs.com/products/sven-labs-nad-strips) |
| NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) | Listed on Smart Strips longevity products without a stated amount; safety studies use 250–500 mg per day | Up to 150 mg per strip is our development target; a study dose needs two or three strips. Subject to the supplier's NDI documentation. | [source](https://smartstrips.us/collections/longevity) |
| Trans-resveratrol | 30 mg in a CoQ10 + resveratrol fast-melt tablet; low-mg amounts on vegan beauty and longevity strips | Fits at 20–50 mg in one strip. Bitter, colored and light-sensitive; needs masking and an opaque sachet. | [source](https://www.amazon.com/CoQ10-Daily-Resveratrol-Melt-Trans-Resveratrol/dp/B00P6488FO) |
| CoQ10 (ubiquinone) | 100 mg in the same fast-melt tablet; strip amounts are lower | 100 mg fits in one strip; 150 mg with higher-load systems. Oil-soluble, so it needs a dispersible form, and the film runs off-white to orange. | [source](https://www.amazon.com/CoQ10-Daily-Resveratrol-Melt-Trans-Resveratrol/dp/B00P6488FO) |
| L-ergothioneine and other 'cellular' antioxidants | Low-mg amounts on multi-active longevity and beauty strips (Stripsii) | Fits. Costly inputs; confirm supplier and specification early. | [source](https://stripsii.com/) |
| Vitamin B3 forms (niacinamide as an NAD precursor) | Daily Value amounts as a lower-cost precursor; FDA's 2025 NMN letters are the current regulatory reference for the NAD-precursor class | Niacinamide fits easily with no flushing. Other precursors are custom-scoped by identity, regulatory status, stability and dose. | [source](https://www.nutraingredients.com/Article/2025/09/30/fda-declares-nmn-lawful-in-dietary-supplements/) |

## Formats that fit

- 30-count carton with foil sachets — moisture-sensitive actives and a high price point both argue for individual barrier packaging

- 15-count 'protocol pack' — sold alongside clinic NAD+ services as a between-visit product

- Practitioner-dispensed 30-count with a compliance-forward label — med-spas and longevity clinics

- Refill sleeves in a reusable tin — a presentation some premium longevity brands prefer

## Where these products sell

- Longevity and biohacking DTC brands

- Med-spas and clinics offering NAD+ services

- Premium wellness lines wanting a high-price-point SKU

- Practitioner dispensing and telehealth programs

- Executive-health and concierge medicine programs

## Move into a 500-box pilot.

Once the development and commercial specifications are aligned, a qualified project can move toward a 500-box pilot: roughly 10,000 strips in 20-count boxes or 15,000 strips in 30-count boxes. The pilot validates product, packaging, documentation, and market response before a larger run.

## Common questions

**How much NAD+ fits in one strip?**

Retail strips label 100 mg, and that is near the practical ceiling for a single film. Reaching it means a larger or thicker strip and a longer dissolve; 50 mg leaves room for flavor and a thinner film.

**Can I make an NMN strip?**

Yes, with two caveats. Our target is 150 mg per strip, so the 250 to 500 mg amounts used in safety studies mean a two- or three-strip serving. And after FDA's September 2025 letters NMN is lawful but still a new dietary ingredient: your supplier needs an accepted notification or you need to file one 75 days before marketing.

**How stable are NAD+ and NMN in a film?**

Both are sensitive to moisture and heat. That is why longevity strips ship in individual foil sachets and why the stability plan is tied to that package and a stated storage condition. Testing scope is set during qualification against the 24-month target.

**Is 'sublingual' a claim I can make?**

Where a strip dissolves is a product-design fact; what that means for absorption is a claim the brand substantiates. Sublingual positioning also raises the 'intended for ingestion' question for supplements, which the brand reviews with counsel.

**What is the pilot for a longevity strip?**

The same qualified 500-box pilot, about 15,000 strips in 30-count. Because inputs like NAD+ are expensive per gram, the pilot is where the brand checks unit economics before a larger run.
