Brief Answer:
continue same

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I understand your concern about side effect of multiple medicines. But some time medicines are necessary and we have to take them.

Constipation, drowsiness, dry mouth, headache etc are main side effect of trigabantin. But these are minor and can be manageable and reversible if we stop medicine. Only a small percentage of people experiencing these problems. There is no major interaction of this to other medicines you are taking.

Hope this will help

Take care..
