 NADP is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate

the H in NADPH indicates that it has an attached Hydrogen ion and can be written as H+

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide or NAD+ is the cofactor or coenzyme for most dehydrogenases. NAD+ is the oxidised form of NADH and vice versa, NADH id the reduced form of NAD+. NAD+ is a source for NADP+ biosynthesis by NAD+-kinase with subsequent energy transduction from ATP.
