Can I combine Zincovit and B Complex in my routine? I'm also on UpriseD3 60k once a week and taking Limcee for vitamin C with another zinc supplement. Is this combo safe or should I spread them out? Feeling a bit confused about managing these. Any advice?

Yes, it is generally safe to take Zincovit and B Complex together, as they contain different vitamins and minerals that support various bodily functions. However, since you're also taking Limcee (Vitamin C) and another zinc supplement, it's important to ensure you're not exceeding the recommended daily intake of zinc or other vitamins. It's best to consult with your doctor to adjust the doses if needed.
