Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The consecutive patients admitted to Intensive care unit of Hepatology department of ILBS and full filling all the eligibility criteria will be enrolled in 1:1 ration by the process of randomization.- The study is an open level study. The investigators will strictly follow the randomization table to give therapy as per the intervention arm.

* Intervention:-the therapeutic intervention is vasopressor i.e. noradrenaline alone and terlipressin along with noradrenaline to maintain the MAP \>65mm Hg.
* Intervention arm

* Arm (A) - Noradrenaline
* Arm (B) - Noradrenaline + low dose terlipressin
