H1-antihistamines are commonly used drugs, and probably the most frequently and freely used for allergic diseases. We report a case of hypersensitivity to antihistamines with development of skin eruptions on intradermal injection of the drug. The utricaria as a result of antihistamines was reconfirmed with repetition of the test. This is one of the very rarely reported types of drug reaction with the literature review of the same.

H1-antihistamines are commonly used drugs, and probably the most frequently and freely used for allergic diseases. We report a case of hypersensitivity to antihistamines with development of skin eruptions on intradermal injection of the drug. The utricaria as a result of antihistamines was reconfirmed with repetition of the test. This is one of the very rarely reported types of drug reaction with the literature review of the same.
