Picamilon (also known as N-nicotinoyl-GABA, pycamilon, and pikamilon) is a drug formed by a synthetic combination of niacin and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). It was developed in the Soviet Union in 1969 [3] and further studied in both Russia [4] and Japan as a prodrug of GABA. [5] In Russia, picamilon is sold as a prescription drug.
This physical state requires a lot of cellular processes to take place for muscle repair and growth. These processes are fueled by nutrients called protein and carbohydrates. The associated benefits to hitting the metabolic window of 30 minutes or less include increasing protein synthesis, reducing muscle protein breakdown and replenishing ...

There is no direct evidence to prove or disprove that Picamilon acts as a pro-drug. Finally a more important question of whether Picamilon has any pharmacological effect to begin with.
