I don't know if anyone has had this problem, but I seem to have an allergic reaction to the new 100% natural air wick air fresheners, all styles. It might be a good idea if someone checked this out to see if the problem is more wide spread, or just me. Now I didn't have this reaction to the orignal style, or to much of anything at all for that matter, so if this is a wide spread problem, air wick should consider changing back untill the cause is figured out, just to be on the safe side.
At first i thought it was a cold and treated it but took forever to heal. At some point i decided to turn it off. I got well. Two weeks later i started using it again and got sick again. Got treated and got suspicious, yesterday on wednesday i turned it on again and now am sick with flu like symptoms and am now convinced it the damned thing! Am done with it.
My wife just sprayed an Air Wick 4 in 1 in the bathroom and I immediately felt like my lungs were going to stop working. Coughing and chest pain that didn't go away until I went out in fresh air. Who did they test this junk on? Throwing it in the garbage & told the wife never to buy an Air Wick product again!
even i am feeling the same...with lot of sneezes n cold...Need action against this product...
We have used Airwick sprays for years with no problems. But now with the new 100% natural Air Wick air fresheners, my wife has an allergic reaction. Not happy.
There is no listing of ingredients on the cannister - so how can we check for things we know we are allergic to?
I do not suffer from any lung condition but the new air fresheners set me off in uncontrollable coughing fits. I eventually received a refund from R.B. after complaining for months. I am sure it must be bad for asthmatics. The old product did not cause problems.

I have used the Air Wick spray for linen and air. I've used it for a couple weeks and I've broken out in rash where I've sat on sofa fm where I sprayed it. Got another Drs appointment tomorrowto see what can stop the awful itching on upper body . It's the only thing I've used that's different in up to 2 years. It's in the cupboard and will stay there.
I have experienced some different, but very serious adverse problems with the NEW AIR WICK(Reckitt Benckiser) air fresheners(all fragrances). I never had any problems with the OLD product or any other air fresheners by Glade. SC. Johnson Co. I'm curious if anyone has experienced ANY other problems(not just allergic/health) with the NEW AIR WICK air fresheners? Thank You.. Nick D
me too. I almost suffocated to death this morning. Maybe I should sue them for almost killing me.
I agree, your not alone I am also suffering from an allergy to Airwick Airfreshners (although my mother thinks this is absurd!)
The only thing that seems to help and i am not sure how or why are a couple of strong paracetamol. I have tried nasal sprays and antihistamines and nothing seems to work. Like you, i was ok untill the new apays came out. Now I spend as much time out of my home so i dont end up looking like I have been crying!
