Brief Summary   The aim of the study is to compare the equipotent doses of inj norepinephrine 8 micrograms and mephenteramine 6 mg for the prophylaxis of hypotension in LSCS after spinal Anesthesia. The subject and the anesthetist giving the drug will be blinded to the drug which will be given. Pregnant females aged between 18 to 45 years with single pregnancy without any comorbidity will be taken into study only after their consent. Patients with allergy to study drugs, multiple pregnancy,having any contraindication to spinal Anesthesia will be excluded from the study.                                                                    Patient will be taken on the table after checking vitals spinal will be given to the patient and just after making the patient supine bolus dose of the drug will be given and NIBP and HR will be measured at 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14 mins. 
Other complains like nausea ,vomiting, headache will also be checked during the duration of LSCS 
Patient will be monitored postoperatively.
