You’re probably OK, but I’d still skip the narcotics and anything you don’t have a prescription for.
All the Gulf states, including Qatar, enforce very strict drug controls. Qatar has a list of all drugs you’re allowed to bring into the country, and if it’s not on there, you can’t bring it in even with a prescription. However…
You’re not actually entering Qatar, you’re just passing through in transit, which means you’re not going to pass through Customs. Now, there may be a random check of incoming passengers at the gate, but these are rare, and if you have a prescription, aren’t entering the country and only have personal use quantities, they are highly unlikely to care.
Also, while it’s not the focus of your question, I’d be very, very careful about importing narcotics to the US. If at all possible, you’d probably be better off getting a prescription and buying them in the US after you’ve arrive.
