Research direction

Start by tracing how the ERGOCALCIFEROL example is normalized and how alternate_labels and trade_names are assembled. Compare the resulting JSON with the source data and identify where duplicate values are introduced; done means the normalized response no longer contains those duplicates. No file or test is named in the issue, so locate the relevant normalization entry point and existing tests first.
