Curex does not treat this allergen

This is one of the most common signs of an allergy to Psoroptes ovis. The skin becomes extremely itchy, leading to persistent scratching and discomfort.
Another symptom is redness and inflammation of the skin. The skin may appear reddened and could be swollen as a reaction to the allergen.
Continual itching may lead to open sores and lesions on the skin. This happens when the severe itching caused by allergic reaction is repeatedly scratched.
As the sores and lesions start to dry up, crusts may start forming on the skin. These crusts can cause further discomfort and itching.
In severe cases, hair loss can occur due to the continual scratching and irritation caused by the allergic reaction to Psoroptes ovis.
The open sores and lesions caused by scratching could potentially become infected. Secondary bacteria skin infections could worsen the condition and may need additional treatment.

Psoroptes ovis, often known as sheep scab mite, spreads typically through direct contact with infested animals. Therefore, one significant step to avoid Psoroptes ovis allergy is to avoid direct contact with the infested animals, especially if you already know that you are susceptible to this kind of allergy.
If you work in an environment that requires handling animals potentially infested with Psoroptes ovis, such as farms or slaughterhouses, always use personal protective equipment (PPE). PPE such as gloves, disposable gowns, or masks can help reduce the chance of exposure to allergenic mites.
If you are a livestock owner, make sure you arrange regular health check-ups for your animals. Early identification and treatment of an infestation can prevent the spread to other animals or people, minimizing the risk of allergenic reactions.
Last but not least, adhering to good hygiene practices can go a long way in preventing a Psoroptes ovis allergy. Regular hand washing, especially after handling animals, can reduce the risk of getting an allergic reaction. Also, ensure to wash and disinfect your clothes and any equipment that may have come in contact with the infested animals.

Psoroptes ovis, the sheep scab mite, does not "grow" in the traditional sense as it is not a plant or fungus. This is a parasite that reproduces under certain conditions. Psoroptes ovis can reproduce at any time of the year in the U.S, given the right circumstances. The life cycle of these mites can cause infestations to noticeably increase during the colder months or times of high humidity. This is due to the thicker wool in sheep during colder seasons which provides an ideal environment for the mite. Also, stock densities are often higher in winter, which allows for easier transmission. However, it is important to note that infestations can occur at any time of the year, not strictly tied to seasons.

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.
