Hey, so I've taken Tecfidera on many holidays and never really had to do anything related to that. Just have it in carry on luggage. So assuming the same with gabapentin as that's a pill as well. But if you are ever concerned you can contact relevant embassies. Although I don't see you having any issues at all. Only area I could see coming up is with airlines but again I've traveled on many flights over the years with Tecfidera and had zero issues.
I take gabapentin and I just took my prescription slip with me but never been asked to show it
