Brief Summary
Septic shock is a major health problem. In the clinical practice guidelines of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign is recommended to add vasopressin (VP) or epinephrine in case of not reaching the goal of mean arterial pressure (MAP) although with a low level of evidence. This is a clinical trial with the purpose of comparing the efficacy and safety of norepinephrine (NE) plus placebo versus NE plus terlipressin (TP) in adult patients with septic shock and with a Sepsis related Organ Failure Assessment score (SOFA)\> 4 points. The primary objective will be a combined end-point: reduction of organic dysfunction measured at 72 h by SOFA score and by the increase in ICU (Intensive care unit) -free days measured at 28 days.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Organ failure
Number of organ failures related sepsis. Assessment Sepsis related Organ Failure Assessmen scale (SOFA scale) after administration of terlipressin / placebo. These scale assesses organ dysfunction. In patients with infection, a SOFA score ≥ 2 points (in patients with chronic organ dysfunction, a 2 point increase from baseline score) is diagnostic of sepsis.
72 hours
Days of life free of stay in the Intensive Care Unit
Number of the days of life free of stay in the Intensive Care Unit measured after the administration of terlipressin / placebo

Study Arms (2)
Noradrenaline plus Terlipressin
EXPERIMENTALPatients enrolled in this arm, will receive noradrenaline with dose equal to or greater than 0.2 μg / Kg / min for at least 3 hours. Solution for infusion (Intravenous). And: Terlipressin with dose 1 mg every 6 hours diluted in a 50 mL serum to pass in 15-30 minutesin injectable solution. Intravenous (diluted in a 50 mL serum to pass in 15-30 minutes)
Noradrenaline plus placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORPatients enrolled in this arm, will receive noradrenaline with dose equal to or greater than 0.2 μg / Kg / min for at least 3 hours in solution for infusion (Intravenous), and placebo with solution in vial with the same external appearance as terlipressin. 1 mg every 6 hours, diluted in a 50 mL serum to pass in 15-30 minutes in injectable solution Route of administration: Intravenous, diluted in a 50 mL serum to pass in 15-30 minutes
