Support thanks for proposing this. Strange to see two codes for Alphapharm. Did you figure out why? --99of9 (talk) 21:52, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment @99of9: Not sure why--but when I've seen a similar situation with other databases, it has typically been due to a merger of companies and both codes therefore applying to the new merged company. Dhx1 (talk) 12:42, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
