That does seem extreme. Have you tried switching up juice at all? Would ask what wicking material you're using but you have a nautilus so I assume you're using their heads. When it happens is it because of a bad taste? Or does it just feel like a reaction from your body? Not really enough info in the op to make any kind of diagnosis

I also assume you have changed the head on your nautilus to see if that helps....

Try a new juice. Maybe Halo has added something new to their juices that you aren't aware of. Try a new juice vendor.

You might try adding some glycerin into your tank. Eases the throat hit. Perhaps dialing down the volts would help as well

Just my 2 cents, but it could be because your throat might be a bit dried out. I don't gag, but if my throat's dry when I vape, my uvula (dangly little ball in the back of the throat) gets stuck and makes it hard to swallow. Try sipping water while vaping and see if that helps.
