Vitalady does 100,000 of vitamin A in her starter pack, spread over 3 batches.

Vitaguy said 1,500 - 2,000 is fine for a DSer. You get stars like Rita Ora having B12 injections as this makes you feel more energetic so I'd carry on. I cut back when mine went over 2,000 which isn't harmful, but you're just flushing your money.

Amy, You're doing great.  Congrats on attaching your vites and labs in the right way!   I just wanted to add that often ppl with low zinc develop a pimple problem.  (I had little bumps on my neck area.)   If this happens it will take a while to correct. Also you may eventually need to work on balancing your zinc and copper.  My solution was to take them on opposite days.  Keep us posted on how you're doing!  :o)

For zinc I had to take it away from other vites and do two batches of 100mg. Taking a reluctant vitamin during the night on an empty stomach can help too.

I've also started doing glycolic acid at 25% to help my skin although I'm going to move up to 35% when what I have runs out.

Can I take zinc and iron at the same time? (And can I take 100mg of Zinc at once?)

I wouldn't, you can have iron and copper together but copper and zinc fight.  I do zinc totally on its own.  I usually do 10 batches of vits a day at 2 hourly intervals - yes I'm OCD.
