Brief Answer:
Visit emergency if there are some symptoms
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
First of all I like to assure you that what you took are well within prescription dose ranges and there is little possibility that you will get any problems other than some form of sedation or gastrointestinal discomfort resulting in nausea and vomiting. For example the effective dose of wellbutrin is 150 to 450 mg and intake of 450 mg in a day does not confer any high risk for otherwise healthy individuals.
Similarly 10 mg of mamantine and 5 mg of finasteride are well within prescribed dose range and rarely cause any serious effects and that too on repeated intake.
Having said this if there are any existing medical conditions such as seizure disorder, previous history of loss of consciousness or gastrointestinal problems visiting emergency is warranted. At the same time if there are any symptoms experienced by you visiting emergency room is recommended.
I hope this helps you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.
