Depends on cause...: The answer completely depends on the cause. For example if it is from hepatitis a alone, he will better (most likely) in a few weeks. If it alcoholic hepatitis, on the other hand, it may be fatal within weeks. So the cause of the hepatitis really matters. And, of course, it is feasible that there are multiple causes acting simultaneously (eg hep b and c); one may dominate now, the other later....
