β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reduced dipotassium is a reducing coenzyme with oral activity. β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reduced dipotassium is the ADP-ribose unit donor in the ADP-ribosidic acid reaction and the precursor of cyclic ADP-ribose. β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reduction dipotassium plays a role in regenerating electron donors in cellular energy metabolism, including glycolysis, β oxidation, and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, reduced (NADH) comprise a coenzyme redox pair (NAD+:NADH) involved in a wide range of enzyme catalyzed oxidation reduction reactions. In addition to its redox function, NAD+/NADH is a donor of ADP-ribose units in ADP-ribosylaton (ADP-ribosyltransferases; poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases ) reactions and a precursor of cyclic ADP-ribose (ADP-ribosyl cyclases).
