Would mixing these two medications kill my fish?

I accidentally threw in QuickCure thinking it was something else, I would like to know if i have to take the fish out and change the water.

Idk, but you shouldn't mix medicines. I use cupramine, it works. Both the meds you want to mix does the same thing, but cupramine is proven to work.

I didnt intend yo mix them, the QuickCure was in a bottle labeled StressZyme, I thought it was StressZyme so I added it without checking, and then I saw the blue color but it was too late.

I would run carbon and do a WC to get that out before running copper

QuickCure contains Formaldehyde, which can react with copper to be pretty harsh for some fish.
What fish do you have in the tank? What type of copper are you using?
