Can Turmeric Supplement Be Taken While On Acyclovir, Penicillin And Gabapentin?

I am on many different medications due to a bone marrow transplant for CML. I would like to know if taking a turmeric supplement would be good or bad. Currently and for the rest of my life I am taking Acyclovir, Penicillin, Gabapentin,Carbamazepine, Omprazole, Diflucan and Fosomax? I also take Calcium w/vitamin D, Glucloemin and Ibuprofen.
