Yo can mix syp calcimax in mother’s milk and give but tonoferone you have to give empty stomach. For tonoferon you can give it directly on back side of tongue immediately give water to reduce metalix taste and blackning of tongue.
Calcimax and toniferon should not be given at same time. Make sure you give on atleast 1-1:30 hours gaps

Yes absolutely. But both syrups Vc not be mixed in one as it will form ferrous carbonate and not be absorbed by the body
Next Steps
You can also change brand of calcium and see. All iron preparations are metallic in taste. However there is an iron sachet available in market which is quite palatable.

1. Is there need to give these syrup? If your child is healthy - weight is more than 9 kg, length around 75 cm , eating well , playful and color of your baby skin is pink - please stop it
2. After 9 months of age, baby develop ego that means it will rebel against any actions which he does not like. Please honour his decision. No more forceful feeding. In future, it will be difficult to feed your child
