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.

How to Recognize if You're Allergic to Domestic Cats

Recognizing if you have a Domestic Cats allergy involves identifying common allergy symptoms and associating them with exposure to cats. Follow these steps to assess if your allergy is specifically related to Domestic Cats.

Identify Common Allergy Symptoms

Sneezing: Frequent sneezing when a cat is present or shortly afterwards can be an indicator.
Itchy, Watery Eyes: Exposure to cats may cause irritation and watering of the eyes.
Runny or Stuffy Nose: Being around cats can lead to nasal congestion or an ongoing runny nose.
Skin Rash or Hives: Direct contact with a cat can sometimes cause skin rashes or hives.
Coughing or Wheezing: Inhaling allergens from cats might result in coughing or wheezing.

Observe When Symptoms Occur

Track if symptoms appear or worsen when you are around cats.
Noticing symptom relief when cats are absent may further indicate an allergy to them.

Seek Medical Testing

Consider visiting an allergist for a skin or blood test to confirm a cat allergy.
An allergist can provide an accurate diagnosis and help differentiate between cat allergies and other allergens.

Tips for Avoiding Domestic Cats Allergy

‍

Limit Exposure to Cats

To minimize allergic reactions, it's crucial to limit the time spent around cats. Consider creating a cat-free zone within your home or avoiding visits to places where cats are present.

Maintain a Clean Environment

Regularly vacuum and dust your living space to remove cat allergens. Using a vacuum with a HEPA filter can be more effective in capturing dander and other particles that trigger allergies.

Consider Air Purifiers

Invest in a high-quality air purifier with a HEPA filter to help reduce airborne allergens. Air purifiers can significantly decrease the concentration of allergens in your home, making breathing easier for allergy sufferers.

Personal Hygiene Practices

After interacting with cats, wash your hands thoroughly and change clothes to prevent the spread of allergens. Showering before bed will help remove any allergens from your skin and hair, leading to a better night's sleep.

Quercetin-Containing Foods

Incorporating capers and dark leafy greens can also help.

Probiotic Foods

Yogurt with live cultures can promote good gut health and may reduce allergic symptoms.
Consider kefir and other fermented foods like sauerkraut for added probiotics.

Allergy FAQ

‍

Can certain cat breeds trigger allergies more than others?

Cat Breeds and Allergies

Certain cat breeds may trigger allergies more than others due to varying levels of the protein Fel d 1 found in their saliva, skin, and urine.

Breeds like Siberian, Balinese, and Bengal are often noted for producing less of this allergen, though no breed is completely hypoallergenic.

Allergy sufferers might respond differently to individual cats, even within the same breed.

Regular cleaning and grooming can help reduce allergen levels in the home, regardless of breed.

What proteins in cats cause allergic reactions in humans?

Proteins Causing Allergies

**Fel d 1**: This is the primary allergenic protein found in cat dander, saliva, and skin, responsible for the majority of allergic reactions.

**Fel d 4**: Another significant protein, found in saliva, often playing a crucial role in triggering human allergies to cats.

**Fel d 2, 3, 5–8**: While less common, these proteins can also contribute to allergic responses in sensitive individuals.

Do hypoallergenic cats completely prevent allergic reactions?

Hypoallergenic Cats and Allergies

**Hypoallergenic cats** produce fewer allergens, specifically the Fel d 1 protein, which is commonly associated with allergic reactions in humans.

While these cats may reduce the severity of allergic reactions, they do not **completely** prevent them, as no cat is entirely free of allergens.

Allergenic response varies by individual, so exposure to hypoallergenic breeds might still trigger symptoms in sensitive individuals.

Consider complementing the choice of hypoallergenic breeds with other strategies like regular cleaning and air filtration to further minimize allergens.
