Didanosine, like zidovudine, stavudine and lamivudine, is a nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI). In the target cell for HIV, didanosine is converted to its active moiety, dideoxyadenosine-5'-triphosphate (ddATP), which inhibits HIV reverse transcriptase and terminates viral DNA growth. It

Didanosine is a dideoxynucleoside analogue, which is phosphorylated to the active metabolite dideoxyadenosine triphosphate (ddATP) intracellularly. At therapeutic concentrations, ddATP inhibits HIV replication by inhibiting HIV reverse transcriptase. Didanosine is established as a first-line treatment for patients with HIV disease
