I wouldn't dissolve anything into a minoxidil bottle. Adding any potential contaminant to it might cause the dissolved Minoxidil to precipitate out. I believe, and I could be wrong here, that the standard bottle of 5% minoxidil is as close to a fully saturated solution as they could keep stable on the store shelf, over time.

Adding the zinc to shampoo will do no good at all. Without a penetrating agent (alcohol, PPG, etc) the zinc in the shampoo won't be able to penetrate the skin.
