Question : Can I take belviq 10 mg and bupropian 150mg together

Brief Answer:
you'd better not!

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

the combination of belviq and bupropion may - albeit rarely - increase the risk for serotonin syndrome which is a very serious disorder that may even lead to death. Therefore using them together is not recommended.

Kind Regards!
