well drop rates must scale with leveling rates really in some ways, I think an overall rate multiplier is not as complex as it should be when adjusting other values
but if drop rates are all 1 let's say but leveling is 5x, the player ends up skipping content
so the rates for items should be higher to be easier obtainable as they are questing/hunting less than normal
I mean this is what I think anyway

Most server that increase leveling rate do not increase drop rate. The two rates would compound if increased. For example, players need 8 quest items. With 8x increased rate, they would get 8x XP for this quest of collect items. But also with 8x increase drop rate, they only defeat one creature to finish the quest so they would receive XP much faster. They would also never have time to play the game, because each quest is complete so quickly. Of course, this is for item collection quests only.

If you are concern with player leveling too fast for profession, for example, it maybe better design to increase profession gain rate instead.

This is only my suggestion. I suggest to test any change you make and if it is fun for your group, then it is a good change.
