The second claim is outdated.
2) It is the first and only known choline-uptake enhancer.

As is oxiracetam.
A single administration of 300 mg/kg i.p. of oxiracetam and piracetam also increased HACU rate in the hippocampus. However, the effect of piracetam was over within 3 h, while 3 h after its administration oxiracetam still caused a 40% increase in HACU rate.
In fact most of the racetams show that mechanism. That is why people sometimes need to supplement choline with them. How or why the claim that coluracetam was the only HACU enhancer is beyond me.
