HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The gabapentin does not interact with any of the drugs mentioned but there are other possible interactions.

The zoloft can interact with the dyladin. It increases the level of the dyladin by affecting its breakdown so there may be increased levels and effects of the dyladin.
Zoloft can also interact with ibuprofen in some cases. Both of these medications can interact together to increase each others effects.

Xanax and dyladin can act together to increase drowsiness and dizziness.

If you have been safely using these medications then there may be no need for change.
You can consider adding the gabapentin since there are no significant interactions with this particular drug

I hope this helps
