No he didn't block doctors from prescribing bactrim. I don't even think he had a way of doing this.
The issue was guidelines. The activists who met with Fauci wanted him to issue guidelines recommendating bactrim
So why didn't Fauci issue this recommendation?
Because the science didn't support it. Not yet. There was no study showing it was effective and there some severe side effects.
Also probably because the activists asking for this were not doctors. One of the lead people pushing for this was an acapella singer and songwriter. The songwriter is the guy who claimed17,000 excess deaths. He did not do any science to come up with that number, btw. He also died from AIDS complications 4 years after the guidelines came out. Because pneumocystic pneumonia was not the only ways AIDS could kill you which shows that method of getting to 17,000 is dubious.
And the CDC issued the guidelines that year. The study was not an exact match for this issue, but it was close enough. Also 1 in 5 patients experienced adverse effects* so bad they had to stop taking Bactrim. They later learned to use lower doses and ease the patient on to it.
Like nausea, vomiting, and anorexia
His Dr also noted why you can't simply claim 17,000 died
Of course in the absence of effective treatments for HIV disease, preventing PCP would have been a life extending rather than a life saving intervention.
And Wow, I never thought I would see Larry Kramer used as a source on GAW.
So Kramer became Fauci's lifelong friend and Fauci was invited to speak at his memorial service, so anyone using Kramer's words from the 1980s to attack Fauci is disingenuous.
I stand by my assessment and that Fauci is a killer bargain. Murders people for pennies on the dollar.
It is consistent with his morale character and behavior:
Fauci transformed NIAID from a world-class protector into a product incubator for Big Pharma by developing new drugs and vaccines for which he, his agency and his employees often share patents and royalties.

Fauci/AIDS/BACTRIM:
In the 1980s, Fauci blocked doctors from treating AIDS patients with pneumocystic pneumonia with the antibiotic Bactrim. It worked, was safe and cheap, already generic. 17,000 people died. https://nonvenipacem.com/2021/11/19/dr-fauci-builder-of-pharmaceutical-empires/

Here's is his DRs account of this bactrim debate

In 1989 a study was done
