Curex is the place to go for all your allergy questions and needs. Led by healthcare entrepreneurs and allergy clinicians, Curex is an integrated, online telemedicine clinic for people who suffer from environmental allergies (e.g., indoor, outdoor or pet), asthma, and eczema.

Curex is the largest online allergy and asthma clinic in the U.S. We started because our clinicians wanted to offer more convenient and affordable allergy and asthma care for everyone. So far we have attracted more than 50,000 customers from every U.S. state. We are proud to have the highest patient satisfaction and loyalty rates in the industry. Our service has been audited and certified by LegitScript.com.

What services do you offer?

Curex provides comprehensive care for those suffering from allergies, asthma, and eczema. This includes customized sublingual immunotherapy, at-home concierge allergy testing, and symptom management. Our goal is to provide accessibility and quality of allergy care in the U.S.

Does Curex accept insurance?

Curex accepts the majority of insurance plans across the United States, including Aetna, Anthem, United, Humana, and others. While it is difficult to estimate out-of-pocket costs prior to a claim being submitted, our team will work with you to make sure your treatment is as affordable as possible. For that purpose, we also cap copays at $500/year. In addition, Curex accepts HSA and FSA.

What conditions do you treat?

We focus on indoor and outdoor allergies caused by environmental or inhalant allergies, like those caused by pollens, weeds, grasses, dust mites, molds, and pets. We also treat allergic asthma and eczema, as these conditions are closely related to allergies.

What is immunotherapy?

Immunotherapy is a longstanding form of treatment that aims to meaningfully reduce the underlying cause of indoor/outdoor allergies and related conditions. It is frequently practiced by using allergen extracts for shots or allergy tablets. Treatment plans are customized to the individual patient based on medical profile, test results, and lifestyle needs.

Can my child use Curex?

Curex serves adults and children as young as 5 years old. Certain tests and treatments may be limited for younger kids. Start by answering the quiz, so that our clinicians can recommend the best testing and treatment options.

Does Curex treat food allergies?

Curex currently treats allergies to tree, weed, grass pollens, pet allergies, dust mites, mold, and cockroach. We do not treat food, metal, venom, or flower allergies.

What is your cancellation policy?

Treatments are shipped in 3-month installments in all plans. Cancellations are accepted prior to the next refill being compounded by the pharmacy (so you can get a partial refund on a prepayment plan). To cancel or pause subscriptions, please email our team at hi@getcurex.com.

How does allergy testing work?

Depending on your location, we send a phlebotomist (medical assistant) to your home or office for a simple blood draw (not a finger prick). This sample is then processed using hospital-grade technology to produce accurate results. In some areas, you may need to go into a local lab for your blood draw. We work with LabCorp and Quest Diagnostics. This is an IgE blood test that results in more accurate results compared to finger prick tests that are available online through some companies. This is not a skin scratch test where an allergist spends 30+ minutes injecting you with small doses of allergens to see if any swelling or reaction occurs.

Is sublingual immunotherapy safe?

Studies have shown a significantly lower risk for anaphylaxis relative to allergy shots, allowing you to take them in the comfort of your own home. If recommended by your Curex-affiliated clinician, or if you prefer, your first dose may be monitored to ensure proper usage. Clinicians will also assist in helping you manage any side effects that you may experience.

Key Symptoms of Deodorants Allergy

Redness and Itching

One of the most common symptoms of a deodorant allergy is redness and itching in the area where the product was applied. This can be a light itchy feeling to an intense scratchy sensation.

Swelling and Tenderness

The skin in the affected area may become swollen, warm to the touch, and tender. These are indications of inflammation due to the allergic reaction.

Blisters or Sores

In severe cases of a deodorant allergy, small blisters or sores may appear on the skin. This reaction can be painful and requires immediate medical attention.

Rashes or Hives

Often, a rash or hives will develop in the area where the deodorant was applied. The skin may exhibit raised, red, and itchy patches that resemble insect bites.

Burning or Stinging Sensation

An allergic reaction to deodorant can cause a burning or stinging sensation. This discomfort can persist even after the product has been washed off.

Peeling Skin

The skin may start to peel or flake in the area of the reaction. This is usually tied to more severe allergic reactions and may be accompanied by dryness and cracks in the skin.

How to Recognize if You're Allergic to Deodorants

If you are experiencing unusual skin reactions after using deodorant, you may be allergic to it. Here is a step-by-step guide that will help you recognize if you have a deodorant allergy.

Identify the Symptoms

Redness, Itching, and Irritation: If you're allergic to deodorant, you may experience redness, itching, and irritation in the underarm area soon after applying the deodorant.
Swelling or Hives: Swelling or the formation of hives in the underarm area could be a sign of allergic reaction to a deodorant.
Burning or Stinging Sensation: If your skin burns or stings after applying deodorant, this could indicate an allergy.

Notice the Timing

Pay close attention to the timing of the reaction. If symptoms occur immediately or within a few hours after applying the deodorant, it's more likely to be an allergic reaction. An allergy to a specific ingredient in the deodorant could cause a reaction even if you've safely used the product before.

Consult with a Dermatologist

If you suspect a deodorant allergy, consult with a dermatologist. They can perform patch testing to identify whether you are allergic to common ingredients in deodorants, like fragrances or preservatives, and help recommend suitable products.

Tips for Avoiding Deodorants Allergy

‍

Switch to Hypoallergenic Deodorants

One way to avoid allergies from deodorants is by switching to hypoallergenic deodorants. Hypoallergenic products are specially formulated to be less likely to cause an allergic reaction as they are free from common allergens. Always check the label to make sure it states that it is “hypoallergenic”.

Avoid Deodorants with Harsh Chemicals

Many deodorants contain harsh chemicals that can cause skin reactions. Ingredients like aluminum, parabens, and artificial fragrances can lead to allergic reactions. Instead, look for deodorants with simple, natural ingredients.

Perform a Patch Test

Before you start using a new deodorant, it's recommended to perform a patch test. Apply a small amount of the product on a small section of your skin and wait for a day. If there is no reaction, the product is likely safe for you to use. If a reaction does occur, discontinue use immediately.

Consult a Dermatologist

If you have sensitive skin or a history of allergies, it's always a good idea to consult a dermatologist before trying out a new deodorant. They can guide you on the best products to use to avoid a potential allergic reaction.

Diet to Ease Deodorants Allergy Symptoms

Choosing the Right Foods

Maintaining a healthy, balanced diet can help strengthen your immune system and reduce allergic reactions to deodorants. Include the following foods in your diet:

Rich in Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Foods like fatty fish (salmon, mackerel, tuna), walnuts, flaxseeds and chia seeds are high in omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to reduce inflammation and allergic reactions.
Vitamin C abound: Foods high in vitamin C, such as oranges, strawberries, bell peppers, and broccoli, can help lessen inflammation and boost the immune system, thereby reducing the severity of allergy symptoms.
Biotin-rich foods: Whole grains, eggs, avocados, and nuts are significant sources of biotin (B7), which can help repair the skin barrier, reducing the reactivity to deodorants.
Probiotic Foods: Foods with live cultures, like yogurt, kefir, and fermented foods, can help balance gut bacteria, playing a vital role in saving your body from overreacting to allergens.
Quercetin-rich foods: Found in onions, apples, and berries, quercetin can help to reduce histamine reactions, which are part of the body's allergy response.

Consider a Balanced Diet

Alongside these foods, ensure you maintain a balanced diet, as extreme diets may create deficiencies and weaken the immune system, making you more susceptible to allergies.

What Food Worsens Deodorants Allergy

While food may not directly worsen the symptoms of a deodorant allergy, certain foods can exacerbate skin inflammation and reactions in general, which can indirectly inflate your reaction to allergens found in deodorants.

Foods That May Intensify Skin Inflammation

Dairy Products: Some individuals may find that their skin reacts poorly to dairy consumption, triggering inflammation.
Gluten: In individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, consuming gluten can trigger an immune response that leads to inflammation, possibly exacerbating skin allergies.
Refined Sugars: Foods high in refined sugar can lead to spikes in blood sugar and insulin levels, which can in turn trigger inflammation.
Processed Foods: Processed foods and fast foods often contain unhealthy trans fats, which can provoke inflammation.
Alcohol: Alcohol can dilate blood vessels, leading to skin flushing and increased inflammation.

Foods That May Assist with Skin Health

Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Foods such as fish, chia seeds, flaxseed, and walnuts contain omega-3 fatty acids, which have anti-inflammatory properties and may help to lessen skin reactions.
Fruits and Vegetables: Fruits and vegetables are full of antioxidants, which can help protect your skin and reduce inflammation.
Healthy Fats: Avocados, nuts, seeds, and olives contain monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which can help maintain healthy skin and reduce inflammation.

Please remember to consult with your healthcare provider or a dietician if you're considering making any significant changes to your diet in an effort to manage your deodorant allergy symptoms.
