General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Your problem is due to enlargement of prostate gland which is common in men after the age of 50. Medicines are available for temporary relief of symptoms of enlarged prostate. But cure is possible by removing the prostate gland by surgery. Surgery for prostate removal is done when symptoms become intolerable or are not responding to medicines. Super beta prostate is a vitamin supplement. It is of no use in enlarged prostate. Besides medicines and surgery, there are some life-style changes which might relieve your symptoms to some extent.
Advice
1.     Do not take super beta prostate for enlarged prostate
2.     Avoid drinking alcohol, tea, coffee or cola as these substances irritate urinary bladder and symptoms worse
3.     Consume less water in the evening but drink at least 3 liters of water in the day time
4.     Empty your bladder while going out of home/office
5.     Eating more fruit and fiber to avoid constipation which can put pressure on the bladder worsening symptoms
6.     Double void to completely empty your bladder – this This involves waiting a few moments after you have finished passing urine before trying to go again
7.     Investigation
a.     Serum prostate specific antigen
b.     Rectal ultrasonography to assess size of prostate
c.     R/E of urine
