Neither one is an anti-inflammatory.

Gabapentin is actually an anticonvulsant that's also used to treat certain types of nerve pain and Mirapex is a dopamine agonist.

You can learn more Mirapex details here and you can learn more Lyrica details here.

Is that the only medication class they listed as being contraindicated?

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories are medications such as Ibuprofen, Naproxen, Meloxicam and others.
