Brief Summary: To evaluate the effectiveness of two oral treatments for mild to moderate Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia PCP dapsonetrimethoprim or clindamycinprimaquine as compared to a standard treatment program of sulfamethoxazoletrimethoprim SMXTMP to assess the tolerance of these two alternative treatments as compared to the standard treatment of SMXTMP Per 090992 amendment to assess the efficacy and tolerance of these two alternative treatments in patients who are intolerant to SMXTMP

The type of treatment being studied has the advantages of wide applicability throughout the world including developing countries and low cost An oral treatment is more accessible to patients than drugs given by injection or by inhalation
Detailed Description: The type of treatment being studied has the advantages of wide applicability throughout the world including developing countries and low cost An oral treatment is more accessible to patients than drugs given by injection or by inhalation

Patients with confirmed PCP are randomized into one of three treatment groups Group A receives SMXTMP Half of group A receives dapsone placebo placebo is an inactive substance daily plus trimethoprim placebo the other half receives clindamycin placebo plus primaquine placebo Group B is given dapsone plus trimethoprim Half of group B receives SMXTMP placebo the other half receives clindamycin placebo plus primaquine placebo Group C is given clindamycin plus primaquine Half of group C receives SMXTMP placebo the other half receives dapsone placebo plus trimethoprim placebo Treatment lasts 21 days dosages will be adjusted for patients weighing less than 50 kg and more than 80 kg Patients with a history of intolerance to SMXTMP for whom rechallenge is considered medically contraindicated may be randomized to one of the non-sulfamethoxazole-containing arms
