Hypersensitivity to parentral nutrition is rare but has been reported in various cases of different age groups. We present a case report of 42 years male patient, who developed hypersensitivity reaction to parentral nutrition (PN) solution containing Multivitamin infusion (MVI), confirmed by epicutaneous allergy testing. Hypersensitivity reactions were managed by withholding the PN and treating with antihistamines. [V Tiwari NJIRM 2017; 8(3):156-157]
