Curex does not treat this allergen

People with Needle Grass pollen allergy often experience frequent sneezing and a runny or stuffy nose, as the body attempts to expel the allergen.
The pollen can cause an allergic reaction that leads to itchy, watery eyes. Some individuals may also experience redness and swelling around the eye area.
Some people may experience skin reactions such as hives, rashes or eczema. These can appear anywhere on the body but are more common on the arms and legs.
Pollen can cause trouble breathing in some individuals, leading to coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. For people with asthma, exposure to the pollen can trigger an asthma attack.
The inflammation caused by the allergic reaction can put pressure on the sinuses. This often leads to headaches, facial pain and even toothaches in some cases.
The physical strain of the allergic reaction can cause fatigue and a general feeling of being unwell or sluggish. This is often heightened if the individual is losing sleep due to nighttime symptoms.
Recognize your symptoms?

Recognizing if you have a Needle Grass pollen allergy generally involves tracking the common symptoms of pollen allergies and identifying potential exposure to Needle Grass pollen. Here are the steps which you need to follow:
Identify the Common Allergic Symptoms
Recognize the Season
Needle Grass typically pollinates from spring to early summer. If your symptoms seem to spike during this period, it is possible that you are allergic to Needle Grass pollen.
Note the Geographical Area
Needle Grass is commonly found in North America, especially in the western United States. If you live or spend time in these areas and have the above symptoms, you may have a Needle Grass pollen allergy.
Get Allergy Testing
To confirm your allergy to Needle Grass pollen, you may want to consider getting an allergy test. This can be done through skin prick tests, blood tests, etc.
Monitor the Pollen Counts
If you notice your symptoms get worse on high pollen count days, it could be a sign of a Needle Grass pollen allergy. Many weather reporting services provide daily pollen counts.
Visit an Allergist
If you suspect a Needle Grass pollen allergy, consider visiting an allergist. They can diagnose the specific type of pollen you are allergic to and recommend an appropriate treatment plan.

Keep a close watch on pollen counts in your local area. When the needle grass pollen count is high, limit your time spent outdoors. Many weather websites or apps provide daily pollen count updates, making it easy to stay informed.
During the peak needle grass pollen season, it is advisable to participate in indoor activities. This reduces the risk of exposure to the allergen. Whether it's indoor sports, going to the gym, or reading a good book, there are plenty of alternatives to outdoor activities.
Enhance indoor air quality by using air purifiers and maintaining clean HVAC systems. Clean the filters regularly and consider adding a specialised pollen filter. This can help in filtering out the allergens entering your home or office.
When you need to be outside during high pollen seasons, wear protective gear such as sunglasses and masks. This can help keep airborne allergens away from your eyes and prevent you from inhaling them.

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.
