Suggest Alternative Medication For Baclofen And Gabapentin

I am trying to find a comparable drug to Baclophen 10MG 3 times a day Gabapentin 300 MG 2ea 3 times a day BlueCross Alabama does not cover these as a maintenance drug. My plan is a 60 day script, but only pay one co-pay... these two are not covered. No one seems to be able to tell what drug would work just as good and be a maintenance drug.
