This is a multi-site, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing a regimen of moderate-dose (6000 mg per day) Vitamin C supplementation versus placebo for the treatment of patients presenting to the ICU with septic shock. Both groups will continue to receive all other standard of care measures for septic shock as clinically indicated. Groups will be enrolled and receive study drug/placebo for 4 days (96 hours) or until 24 hours post-last pressor dose, whichever is sooner.
