Do I enter real estate taxes paid on mortgage interest form for home equity loan if I already entered those same real estate taxes on mortgage interest form for primary home loan?

No, the amounts would be added together.

If you are certain that the tax amount has already been accounted for in full by entering it from the first 1098, then do not include it when you enter the information from the second 1098.
