Thanks, Mrs. D.

I get a bit nervous when it comes to zinc. I was taking a supplement before, and then I came across a woman who developed a copper deficiency from zinc toxicity (but that was due to using polygrip). Do you think that it's safe to take on a regular basis? I figure it must be okay now since the prednisone is preventing absorption so I'm at a low risk of toxicity sorta, but I'm still a bit apprehensive.

Thanks!
Nicky
