Are you sure those are the doses??!! They are REALLY high... Is that the ZINC or is that the amount of overall substance (eg: is it 50mg of ZINC or 50mg of zinc gluconate with will give you xmg of zn)??
Usually supps will only give you 5-15mg...
But... Yeah.... You might be getting a little too much (esp if you then consider you will be getting zinc from your food as well)... You don't want to really get more than about 40mg/day for a significant portion of time - it can interfere with copper levels in your body...

Zinc
How much is too much zinc?
If I take a multivitamin in the morning and evening, it gives me 50mg of zinc.
Then I take a ZMA blend before bed, yielding another 30mg.
Is that too much?
