One common symptom of a pineapple allergy is experiencing a swelling, itching, or tingling sensation in the mouth. This can be accompanied by inflammation of the lips and tongue.
People with a severe pineapple allergy may have difficulty breathing as a result of the reaction. This is due to the body's immune system response to a compound in pineapples.
Some individuals with a pineapple allergy may develop a skin rash or hives. The rash can appear as small, red, itchy spots that can spread across the body.
Abdominal pain is often a symptom of food allergies, including pineapple allergy. This can include stomach cramps, bloating, and digestive discomfort.
These symptoms are usually related to digestive problems and can occur as a reaction to eating pineapple. This may also be accompanied by diarrhea.
A severe reaction could result in anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening allergic reaction that requires immediate medical attention. Symptoms can include a rapid, weak pulse; a skin rash; and shock.
Recognize your symptoms?

Identifying a pineapple allergy mainly involves observing the symptoms that occur after consuming pineapple, then eliminating other potential allergens from your diet to confirm. Below are steps to help you identify a pineapple allergy.
Observe Symptoms
Eliminate Other Potential Allergens
After observing the symptoms, you need to eliminate other potential allergens from your diet to make sure that pineapple is the main allergen. If symptoms stop after eliminating pineapple from your diet, it’s a sure sign you are allergic to it. To confirm, gradually reintroduce other eliminated foods. If symptoms don't recur, then pineapple is likely the culprit.
Seek Medical Attention
If you observed any of the severe symptoms like difficulty in breathing, it is important to seek medical attention immediately. Additionally, an allergy test can be carried out by a doctor for a definitive diagnosis of a pineapple allergy.

Refrain from consuming pineapples if you know for sure that you're allergic to them. Prevention is the best method to avoid allergies. Be cautious while eating desserts, drinks, or dishes that may contain pineapple.
Always check food labels on packaged foods such as fruit juices, sauces, and packaged salads. These foods often contain traces of pineapple which could trigger your allergy. If the label is unclear, its best not to consume the product.
When dining out, always inform your server about your pineapple allergy. Even if pineapple is not listed as an ingredient in the dish you're ordering, it's essential to ensure that it's not used in the preparation process, or the dish doesn't come in contact with pineapple during serving.
Wear a medical alert identification bracelet or necklace. It's a quick way to inform people, especially during emergency situations, about your pineapple allergy. Medical practitioners would also be able to administer the right treatment during an allergic reaction.

Pineapple Growing Seasons in the U.S
Pineapples prefer a tropical, humid climate and can be produced in the U.S throughout the year, depending on the region. However, the balance of suitable temperature, rainfall and sunlight conditions happens to be strikingly optimal particularly during the spring and summer seasons hence, farmers prefer to plant during these periods.
Harvesting Time
After planting, it takes a pineapple plant about 18 to 24 months to produce a fruit, meaning the harvest typically occurs in the late summer or early fall of the second year after planting. This means a pineapple plant planted in spring or summer will usually be harvested two years later around the same period it was planted. This cycle can however shift depending on the specific climatic conditions which can sometimes speed up or slow down the development of the fruits.

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.
