A direct contact with enzymes can lead to skin reactions. These reactions can include itchy, red, or swollen skin, hives, or eczema. The skin reactions are often localized to the area where the contact with the enzyme occurred.
Respiratory symptoms are common in individuals with an enzyme allergy. Symptoms can include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and in severe cases, anaphylaxis or asthma-like symptoms may occur.
Digestive issues can emerge in cases where enzymes are ingested. These symptoms can involve abdominal pain, cramping, diarrhea, and nausea or vomiting.
Nasal symptoms may include sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, and postnasal drip. These symptoms are the body's way of trying to expel the allergen from the system.
Eye irritation can occur if enzymes come into contact with the eyes. Symptoms can include redness, itching, watering, and a burning sensation.
In severe cases, an allergic reaction to enzymes can lead to anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening reaction that can cause difficulty in breathing, dizziness or fainting, a rapid or weak pulse, and a sudden drop in blood pressure.
Recognize your symptoms?

If you suspect that you have an allergy to enzymes, it's important to understand the common symptoms associated with enzyme allergies and consult with a medical professional. Here's a guideline to follow:
Recognize Common Symptoms of Enzyme Allergies
Take an Allergy Test
Consult a healthcare provider to undertake an allergy test. Allergy to enzymes can be diagnosed through a skin prick test where a small amount of suspected allergen is placed on your skin to observe any allergic reaction.
Regular Monitoring of Symptoms
Monitor your health whenever you have been exposed to enzymes. This can help to quickly identify any abnormal reaction and get medical assistance.
Consult a Healthcare Provider
If your symptoms persist, it's essential to seek medical advice. Your healthcare provider can conduct further tests or refer you to a specialist if necessary.

If you know you are allergic to certain enzymes, the easiest way to avoid an allergic reaction is to avoid direct contact with the enzyme. This might require you reading product labels carefully and avoiding certain foods, detergents, or other products that contain the enzyme.
Many companies produce hypoallergenic products that are free from common allergens. These products are less likely to cause an allergic reaction and can be safely used by most individuals. If you are allergic to certain enzymes, using hypoallergenic household goods and cosmetics can help you avoid exposure.
If your job requires you to work with enzymes, you might want to consider investing in personal protective equipment. Gloves, masks, and goggles can help protect your skin, lungs, and eyes from airborne enzymes and direct contact.
If you suspect that you have an enzyme allergy, it is best to consult with a healthcare professional. They can run tests to verify your allergy, help you understand what substances to avoid, and provide medication if necessary. It is important not to self-diagnose, as this can lead to unnecessary avoidance of certain foods or products, or even accidental exposure to the allergenic enzyme.

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.
