Here's what FDA-approved drug labeling shows.

MODERATE

Interaction Found

Taking atenolol with bupropion together may cause atenolol to build up to higher levels in your body. This could make atenolol work too strongly, which may lower your heart rate too much or cause dizziness and weakness.

What to do: Talk to your doctor about taking these medicines together. Do not stop either medicine on your own. Your doctor may check how you're feeling or adjust your atenolol dose to keep you safe.
