A common symptom of Mugwort pollen allergy is a runny or blocked nose, which occurs when the body is producing mucus to trap and remove the allergen. This can cause an uncomfortable blocked feeling or lead to a persistently runny nose.
Sneezing is another typical symptom as the body attempts to expel the allergen. Individuals with a Mugwort pollen allergy may experience frequent sneezing episodes.
Exposure to Mugwort pollen can cause the eyes to become itchy or watery. This is a result of the body's reaction to the allergen, irritating the membranes of the eyes.
This occurs when the allergen enters the lungs and the body responds by inflaming the airways, making it difficult to breathe & may lead to wheezing. This symptom may be particularly prominent in people with underlying respiratory conditions such as asthma.
Some people may experience skin rashes or hives as part of their allergic response. These are raised, red patches of skin that can be very itchy and uncomfortable.
A persistent cough may develop as your body tries to clear the allergen from your lungs and throat. This can be dry or accompanied by mucus.

Identifying Mugwort Pollen Allergy Symptoms
Recognize the Season
Mugwort tends to pollinate in late summer to early fall. So, if your symptoms become apparent during this time, it could indicate a Mugwort pollen allergy. However, it’s crucial to remember that other plants also pollinate during this period.
Seek Medical Assistance for Testing
If you suspect that you have a Mugwort pollen allergy, the best course of action is to seek medical help. A healthcare provider can perform skin prick tests or blood tests to identify specific allergies. This can help determine whether Mugwort pollen is a trigger for your symptoms.
Track the Pollen Count
In regions where Mugwort grows, tracking the daily pollen count can provide useful insights. A correlation between high Mugwort pollen counts and the worsening of your symptoms might point towards a Mugwort allergy.
Consider Cross-Reactivity
People allergic to Mugwort pollen may also react to certain foods due to a phenomenon known as cross-reactivity. These foods include celery, apples, peanuts, sunflower seeds, and spices like caraway and anise. If you have adverse symptoms after eating these foods, it might indicate an allergy to Mugwort pollen.

Peak pollen times usually occur in the morning, and particularly on warm, dry days. During these times, consider limiting outdoor activities to reduce your exposure to Mugwort pollen. Pollen levels also tend to be higher on windy days since the wind can carry pollen over large distances.
When you are required to be outside during peak pollen times, make sure to wear sunglasses and a hat to protect your eyes from coming into contact with the pollen. After outdoor activities, it's advised to change and wash your clothes to eliminate any pollen particles that may have attached to your clothing.
It's essential to keep your windows and doors closed during peak pollen times to avoid letting the pollen inside your house. Purchasing an air purifier with a HEPA filter can also help to remove pollen from the air inside your home.
If you're prone to pollen allergies, consider speaking with your doctor about potential allergy medications that may help alleviate your symptoms. For more severe allergies, immunotherapy, like allergy shots or tablets, may be recommended to decrease your body's reaction to specific allergens such as Mugwort pollen.

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.
