Title: Efficacy of G-CSF in the Management of Steroid Non-responsive Severe Alcoholic Hepatitis. - A Double Blind Randomized Control Trial.
Brief Summary: After successful screening, first the investigators first treat patients of severe alcoholic hepatitis with steroids for 7 days. Patients who are found to be unresponsive as per Lille's score \[\>0.45\] would be randomized into either placebo group or G-CSF group. Responders to steroids will continue on steroids for 28 days followed by 2 weeks of tapering. Non responders will be randomized to receive G-CSF for 28days.

   * single failure of one of the following organ systems: liver, coagulation, circulation, or respiration, together with a serum creatinine level ranging from 1.5 to \< 2.0 mg/dl and/or mild to moderate hepatic encephalopathy or
   * single cerebral failure together with serum creatinine level ranging from 1.5 to \< 2.0 mg/dl or
   * two or more organ failures. Organ failures are defined according to the CLIF-C OFs \[Jalan 2014\].
