Brief Summary   This study is a prospective, randomised, double blinded, placebo controlled study to evaluate the postoperative analgesic benefit in patients administered with pregabalin or amitriptyline as premedication for patients undergoing inguinal hernioplasty surgeries under spinal anaesthesia and to compare their postoperative efficacy with respect to increase in duration of analgesia, reduction in total postoperative requirement of analgesics and study the adverse effects, if attributable to both drugs
