I am taking Dymista for chronic allergies, can the cortisone in this medication cause me to gain weight? In my face, etc?

Yes, cortisone contained in certain medications can lead to weight gain, especially in the face area. This can result in a rounder face or the appearance of more "fat" under the chin. Suspending the use of cortisone for a few weeks may help reverse this effect.
