Hello,
Welcome to the HCM.
As gabapentin may have some side effects like drowsiness,dizziness,sedation etc

Gemfibrozil may cause stomach upset,nausea,headache,dizzinness and loose motions.

Omeprazole may cause constipation,loose motions etc

Ropinirole may cause nausea and vomiting etc

Alprazolam may cause drowsiness,fatigue,sedation,tremers,nervousness etc

If different medicines have to be used for variuos complaints better these should be used with a gap of hours.
These medicines may cause some side effects but it is not necessary that every patient suffer the same all side effects .But the effects of medicines varies from person to person.And if there are more favours than risks of medicines then it is wise to use them to relieve the symptoms.

If any medicine causes some unbearable side effects then the treating doctor should be informed promptly about it.So the group or doses of medicine can be changed accordingly.

Hopefully my answer will be helpfull,you may ask further without hesitation.
