Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Adult patients with septic shock, at least 24 hours after initiation of resuscitation, with HR more than 95 bpm, requiring noradrenaline support (1 - 25 mcg.min-1) to maintain MAP more than 65 mm Hg in spite of adequate volume resuscitation [corrected central venous pressure (CVP) more than 10 mm Hg and inferior vena cava diameter (IVCd) more than 1.5 cm].

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease (coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, cardiac rhythm abnormalities and conduction defects, congenital heart disease, pace-maker in-situ). 2. Patients with a history of pre-existing chronic renal failure with a glomerular filtration rate less than 15 ml.min-1. 3. Patients with severe liver dysfunction (MELD score more than 30). 4. Requirement of high dose noradrenaline (more than 25 mcg.min-1) or second vasopressor to maintain MAP more than 65 mm Hg. 5. Any contraindication to enteral drug administration (including patients of gastro-intestinal perforation, mechanical bowel obstruction and post-gut resection-anastomosis). 6. Pregnancy, lactation 7. Patients less than 18 years and more than 75 years of age 8. Patients with active bleeding 9. Post-cardiac arrest patients 10. Hb less than 7 g/dL 11. BMI more than 35 12. Use of potent cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors such as antifungals of the azole-type (ketoconazole, itraconazole), macrolide antibiotics (clarithromycin, erythromycin) and HIV protease inhibitors (nelfinavir, ritonavir).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome is difference in HR between the two groups during the first 96 hour after recruitment.Timepoint: 96 hours

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary outcomes include 96 hour difference in MAP, NA requirement, CI, SVI, LVEF, arterial lactate, PaO2-FiO2 ratio, proBNP, Troponin I (Trop I), creatinine, bilirubin and APACHE II score; difference in incidence of severe bradycardia, heart block, atrial fibrillation (AF) and MACE; requirement of RRT, duration of vasopressor requirement, mechanical ventilation and ICU stay; and 30-day ICU mortality.Timepoint: 96 hours, 30-day
