Am J Med 95:573-583, Torres,R.A.,et al, 1993
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Dapsone is as effective as aerosolized pentamidine in preventing PCP and has the advantage of a lower cost,easier administration,and possibly an additional preventive effect against toxoplasmosis.Zidovudine prolongs the PCP-free interval for patients receiving prophylaxis,regardless of which prophylactic agent is used.
