This is where a person experiences shortness of breath or uneven breaths. The reaction might be so severe that it causes asthma-like symptoms such as wheezing and coughing.
This denotes the development of itchy, red, raised bumps on the skin. The rash can appear anywhere on the body and is one of the most common signs of an allergy.
The person may notice swelling of the lips, face, tongue, or throat. This can impede breathing and is a sign that medical attention is needed immediately.
This symptom showcases as a tingling or itching sensation inside the mouth, throat, or on the lips. The symptom may begin shortly after consuming the artificial flavoring.
This includes symptoms like stomach cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, or nausea. Digestive symptoms are common with food allergies and may occur quickly after ingesting artificial flavorings.
In extreme cases, artificial flavoring allergies can lead to anaphylaxis, a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. Symptoms include difficulty breathing, sudden drop in blood pressure, rapid pulse, dizziness, or loss of consciousness.

Before consuming any food product, carefully review its ingredients. Artificial flavorings are often hidden under names such as "natural flavors," "food additives," or specific flavor names. Always avoid products that list artificial flavors among the ingredients.
To ensure a diet free of artificial flavors, focus on eating whole foods. These include fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Not only are these foods beneficial for overall health, but they also naturally lack artificial flavorings.
Preparing meals at home allows you to control the ingredients you use, thus, you can easily avoid recipes with artificial flavorings. This habit also encourages healthier eating and allows you to experiment with natural flavors.
Fast food and processed food items are notorious for using artificial flavors. Avoid these types of foods as much as possible. Stick to fresh, unprocessed food items where you can be sure no artificial flavorings have been added.

It’s a physician-prescribed, custom-compounded formula designed to target all your nasal symptoms at once — congestion, runny nose, post-nasal drip, sneezing, and more.

Formulated by doctors and pharmacologists and backed by clinical research, Quickie combines five powerful ingredients into one easy spray.

Typical prescription may include the following ingredients: Azelastine HCL 0.15%, Mometasone Furoate 0.05%, Oxymetazoline HCL 0.0125%, Ipratroprium 0.06%, Sodium Hyaluronate 0.04%.
Straight to the source. That’s Curex


Quickie is a compounded prescription medication, prepared by a licensed pharmacy. It is not reviewed or approved by the FDA. It is prepared based on your provider’s evaluation of your symptoms and needs. Individual results may vary.

Lauren S.
No longer having to go the doctor's office a few times a week for painful shots.
Tony P.
I have done allergy shots in the past but found it pretty inconvenient to go every week. I really like the ease as compared with physically going to the doctors office.

Robert S.
The treatment is much less expensive than a course of allergy shots at a doctor's office and eliminates numerous trips to the doctor's and all the waiting time.
Janie L.
My seasonal allergies were much less severe than years prior. Most importantly, the convenience of taking drops in my own home is unbeatable.

Most patients feel relief within 15 minutes. We have both short-term relief ingredients as well as longer-term relief to keep you feeling better, longer. Some say it’s like turning off their allergies.
Sneezing runny nose, nasal congestion, post-nasal drip, sinus pressure, itchy nose. Great for outdoor allergies, indoor dust, or when pollen spikes unexpectedly.
No, this formula uses a microdose of oxymetazoline, balanced with anti-inflammatory and moisturizing ingredients to reduce the risk of rebound congestion. Clinical studies over the last decade show that when oxymetazoline is combined with a corticosteroid, it can be used safely over the long term without causing rebound symptoms.
Quickie Spray combines up to five prescription-strength ingredients into a single, personalized formula — targeting multiple symptoms like congestion, post-nasal drip, and inflammation. OTC sprays typically address just one symptom and lack the synergy of a customized blend.
Some ingredients like azelastine may cause a slight taste, but many patients find it milder than traditional OTC sprays. Proper spray technique (head forward, not tilted back) helps minimize drip.We also offer an alternative formulation with olopatadine, which has a gentler taste profile and may be preferred by taste-sensitive patients.
Quickie is designed to replace most other allergy medications. But it is designed to compliment allergy immunotherapy for long-term relief. If you’re currently taking other antihistamines or nasal sprays, tell your Curex provider, so we can adjust your formula to avoid overlap or interactions.
No, Quickie is a personalized compounded prescription prepared by licensed U.S. pharmacies based on your doctor’s evaluation. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved as commercial products, but they are regulated under federal and state pharmacy laws.
Possible side effects include nasal dryness, mild irritation, or occasional nosebleeds. These are typically mild and manageable. Let your Curex provider know about any bothersome or serious effects, so we can fine-tune your prescription if needed.
Quickie is safe for daily use, especially during the first 3–6 months of allergy immunotherapy, when symptoms are still active. Your Curex provider may adjust your dose or frequency as your immune system builds tolerance.
Quickie is designed to be non-sedating, so you can use it before work, school, or exercise without feeling groggy or foggy. In rare cases where drowsiness is reported, let your Curex provider know—we can easily adjust the formula to better suit your needs.
Yes, Quickie Spray can be prescribed for children aged 6 and up, based on your provider’s clinical evaluation.
Follow the instructions from your Curex provider.Most patients are advised to use one spray per nostril, twice daily — morning and evening — for consistent relief.
