Hi! Nothing to worry. You can give vitamin d3 and zincovit at different time , need not give both at once.
Try giving one in morning and other in the evening and see so that osmolarity isn’t high that way.
Dosage to be given as prescribed by your doctor.

Its normal to poop more times at this age. Its not related to the drops. If baby birth weight is above 2.5kg then you can give only vitamin D3 and stop others.
