Some doctors give higher doses of zinc and B6 depending on how the test results come out. Severe pyrolurics may need more.

What you are taking is a modest amount. It is fine as a test and treatment for mild pyroluria.

Copper over time when low causes anemia. That would show up in CBC blood tests.

You can take the copper with zinc, as that how nature presents it to us. But if you don't have stomach acid (either genetic reasons or taking acid blocking drugs) you won't absorb much of either.
