Popis:	Kounis syndrome (KS) refers to acute coronary syndrome secondary to a hypersensitivity reaction as a result of exposure to various allergens. Multiple bee stings as a cause of KS is rarely reported in the literature. Its diagnosis in allergic reactions is of utmost importance, as it leads to an entirely different line of management. We report a series of six cases who presented with the diagnosis of KS due to multiple bee stings.
