Stimulate your mind, calm anxieties with Picamilone

Picamilone improves blood flow in the brain, increasing alertness while easing stress and anxiety

Picamilone is a chemical derived from gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA) and nicotinic acid. It possesses high cerebrovascular activity, exceeding the effect of cinnarizine, papaverine, xanthinol niacinate and piracetam.

Picamilone rapidly crosses the blood-brain barrier and increases the rate of intracranial and cortex blood circulation. It has been cited as a better vasodilator than either Hydergine or Vinpocetine. Officially it is an anti-anxiety drug, but it also possesses stimulatory properties and anti-depression qualities.

The combined effect of Picamilone is to act as a mild stimulant, yet depresses aggression. This could be the clear actions of Niacin and GABA (after all diazepam's such as valium increase or enhance the activity of GABA).

But what makes picamilone unique is that while it counteracts stress and anxiety, it doesn't have a sedative action. In fact quite the opposite; it can have a mild stimulatory action. Picamilone may be the first anti-anxiety drug that doesn't make you drowsy. Russian studies going back to 1989 have compared picamilone with other psycho-stimulant drugs including piracetam (Nootropil), phenazepam, diazepam, vinpocetine, xanthinol nicotinate, and papaverine. It was noted that the stimulant properties of picamilone were greater than that of piracetam. After taking picamilone the patients felt better and giddiness and tremors disappeared. Further benefits of picamilone over the traditional tranquilizing drugs are that it does not display any signs of inducing muscle relaxation, lethargy, or drowsiness.

Other Russian studies with Picamilone show it to improve patients with a mild to moderate memory impairment, emotional, hearing and speech difficulties.

A common use of Picamilone to speedily restore mental and physical fitness after trauma. It is effective for ischemic disturbances of cerebral blood circulation, discirculatory encephalopathy, vegetative dystonia, and for prevention and treatment of the simple form of migraine. Picamilone has proven an effective medicinal treatment for patients with disorders of a neurotic level, with accompanying manifestations of anxiety, fear, emotional and vegetative instability. Picamilone finds a use in the complex treatment of alcoholism and acute alcoholic intoxication. In fact, the list of indications for prescription of Picamilone is constantly growing.

Clinical studies have shown that Picamilone even possesses favorable properties in opthalmological practice in the treatment of primary open glaucoma, diseases of the retina and the optic nerve of vascular genesis. It has been adapted also in urological practice for treatment of neurological disorders of urination in children and adults.

Dosage:
Take 50mg or 100mg once, twice or maximum three times daily with occasional breaks. The effects of Picamilon are usually felt quickly, with most people noticing impact within an hour.

Side effects:
Minimal - occasional headaches, dizziness and nausea

Caution:
Picamilone may be synergistic with other nootropic drugs, (such as Centrophenoxine and Piracetam); therefore always remember to reduce overall dosages in order to avoid headaches, nausea and vertigo. At high dosages seek your physicians advice if combining with potent vasodilators such as, ginkgo biloba, nicergoline, vinpocetine or xanthinol nicotinate. Also, due to its mild reversible MAO-A inhibition, at high dosages, without your physician's advice, avoid combination with other MAO-A drugs including Deprenyl and Gerovital-H3 and general anti-depressants (such as Prozac, Paxil and Zoloft etc.).

WHAT IS PICAMILON? Picamilon is a clever combination of GABA and Niacin. By chemically bonding these two vitamins into one compound, a new and unique spectrum of beneficial nootropic (cognitive enhancing) effects are achieved.

WHAT THE STUDIES SAY: Studies show that Picamilon dramatically increases blood flow and circulation within the brain, and achieves results far superior to other nootropic agents such as Hydergine, Ginkgo Biloba etc. In small doses, Picamilon has a tranquilizing action which prevents the negative physiological effects of emotional stress. This tranquilizing influence is also helpful for moderate states of anxiety and depressed negative emotions. Unlike most tranquilizing agents, Picamilon doesn’t have any sedative qualities, making it much more suitable for daily activities. Picamilon provides a tranquilized yet energized state of being.

EFFECTS: The effects of Picamilon are usually felt quickly, with most people noticing impact within an hour. The effects of each dose last for about 4-6 hours. In small doses of 50mg three times per day, Picamilon provides a mild tranquilizing and mood stabilizing effect without sedation. In higher doses of 100mg three times per day, Picamilon provides a stimulating influence that is experienced as an increase in energy and endurance. The cognitive enhancing effects of Picamilon are cumulative and become more evident after several weeks of daily usage. Picamilon has extremely low toxicity, and shows no allergenic or carcinogenic properties. With its unique spectrum of effects, Picamilon may very well be the most amazing dietary supplement discovery of the century!

WARNING: Not for use by children, pregnant or lactating women. If you are under medical supervision, or if you are taking MAO inhibitor medications or any other drugs then consult with your physician before using this product.

Directions: 1 to 2 tablets daily up to three times daily. For maximum absorption take between meals on an empty stomach. For best results use consistently for a period of several weeks as the cognitive enhancing effects are cumulative.
