When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug interaction with food or lifestyle.

Consumer:

Food decreases the levels of didanosine in your body. Take didanosine on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes before or 2 hours after a meal. This will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication. Do not crush, chew, break, or open a delayed-release capsule (Videx EC). Swallow the pill whole. It is specially made to release medicine slowly in the body. Breaking or opening the pill would cause too much of the drug to be released at one time.

Professional:

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Didanosine bioavailability is decreased when administered with food. Loss of efficacy may result.

MANAGEMENT: Didanosine should be administered in the fasting state, at least 30 minutes before or more than 2 hours after eating.
