  1. An antiviral drug used to combat HIV infection as part of combination therapy.C2formalmedical

    A synthetic nucleoside analogue of deoxyadenosine, also known as didanosine, that inhibits the replication of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus. Once inside the body, it is converted into its active metabolite, dideoxyadenosine triphosphate, which interferes with the viral enzyme reverse transcriptase, preventing the virus from transcribing its RNA into DNA and thereby slowing the progression of the disease.
