Brief Summary: To compare the efficacy and safety of dapsone versus atovaquone in preventing or delaying the onset of histologically proven or probable Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in HIV-infected patients with CD4 counts 200 cellsmm3 or 15 percent of the total lymphocyte count who are intolerant to trimethoprim andor sulfonamides

Trimethoprimsulfamethoxazole TMPSMX which is effective for secondary PCP prophylaxis is associated with allergic manifestations and side effects that limit its use Patients who are intolerant of TMPSMX require an effective alternative Dapsone and atovaquone have both shown promise as PCP prophylactic agents
Detailed Description: Trimethoprimsulfamethoxazole TMPSMX which is effective for secondary PCP prophylaxis is associated with allergic manifestations and side effects that limit its use Patients who are intolerant of TMPSMX require an effective alternative Dapsone and atovaquone have both shown promise as PCP prophylactic agents

Patients are randomized to receive either dapsone or atovaquone daily with follow-up at the clinic every 4 months
