Can Gabapentin Cause Itchy Raised Bumps On The Scalp?

I have been on gabapentin 600 mg for some time to treat nerve damage and I have what looks like white cradle cap, itching, and raised bumps. I have never had it before. The only drug I have changed is the started the gabapentin. Can this medication because this reaction on my scalp? I also have itchy eyes, and one eye lid is red and swollen a little, and also itchy.
