Brief Summary: It is well known that terlipressin and albumin improve renal function in patients with cirrhosis and type 1 HRS In previous studies terlipressin has been used either as intravenous boluses moving from an initial dose of 05-1 mg4 hr or as continuous intravenous infusion at the initial dose of 2 mg24 h Up to now the two schedules of iv administration of terlipressin have never been compared Nevertheless it has been hypothesized that continuous intravenous infusion assures a more steady profile of effect on portal pressure in patients with cirrhosis Thus the aim of the study will be to compare terlipressin given as iv bolus vs terlipressin given as continuous intravenous infusion in the treatment of type 1 HRS in patients with cirrhosis
