This study focuses on comparing two treatments for oropharyngeal candidiasis, a condition commonly known as thrush, in patients who have AIDS. The two treatments are fluconazole, a single daily capsule, and clotrimazole troche, which is taken five times a day. The goal is to see which treatment works better, is safer, and is more easily tolerated by patients. This research is important because it aims to find the best treatment option for thrush in AIDS patients, which can improve their quality of life and help manage their condition more effectively.
