Hello
Thanks for query ,
Based on the symptoms that you have and the medications that you have been advised it seems that you have obstructing voiding symptoms and irritative bladder symptoms due to Enlarged Prostate .

The urgency to pass urine immediately after emptying bladder is mostly due to what is called as Over Active Bladder (OAB )

Taking anti muscuranic drug like Darifenasin once daily will help you to resolve this problem .

Alfoo and Silodosin belong to same group of drug .You may take either of the two .
