Picamilon (also known as nicotinoyl-GABA, pycamilon, and pikamilon) is a dietary supplement formed by combining niacin with GABA. It was developed in the Soviet Union in 1969 by the All-Union Vitamins Scientific Research Institute[1][2][full citation needed] and further studied in both Russia[3] and Japan as a prodrug of GABA.[4]

Picamilon is sold in the United States as a dietary supplement, while in Russia it is sold as a prescription drug. The rights to the drug belong to the Russian pharmaceutical company NPK ECHO ("??? ???").
