Not that I know of. It's just a bonded mix of niacin and GABA.

[Effect of nootropes on quantitative changes in the rat cerebral cortex GABA(A) receptor complexes under experimental hypokinesia conditions].
[Article in Russian]
Abstract

The influence of picamilon and piracetam on the quantitative changes in the central GABA(A) macromolecular receptor complexes in the rat brain has been investigated under the experimental conditions of hypokinesia. It was found that the injection of these nootropes under the conditions of 7-day hypokinesia and 4-day recovery period did not show visible changes in the amount of active GABA(A) receptors. However, the injection of picamilon under the conditions of 15-day hypokinesia and 8-day recovery period showed a tendency to restoration of the number of active GABA(A) receptors.

Perhaps GABA[1].

In case you throw that too far out of balance, there's always cow piss:

 

The isoflavones S-(–)-equol, 4′-hydroxy-7-methoxyisoflavone and 3′,7-dihydroxyisoflavone (Figure 2) isolated from bovine urine were found to displaced 3[H]-diazepam binding in rat brain

----------------

Some representative flavonoids that have been shown to influence benzodiazepine binding to brain membranes (30,7‐dihyroxyisoflavan, amentoflavone, apigenin, 6‐methy-lapigenin, and oroxylin A), to act at GABAA as positive modulators (hispidulin) or negative modulators (amentoflavone, apigenin), or at GABAC as negative modulators(apigenin). In addition, apigenin and ()‐epigallocatechin gallate have been found to have a novel second order modulatory action on the first order modulation of GABAAby diazepam.
