Kounis syndrome (KS) was first described by Kounis as an allergic angina syndrome progressing to allergic myocardial infarction (1). Further research about KS revealed that it is a multi-organ and multidisciplinary condition (2). In this case report, we present a case of myocardial infarction caused by intravenous (IV) ceftriaxone and IV metronidazole administration.
