Liam Hannaway, 40, is serving a 10-year sentence for possessing explosives and ammunition.
It is understood that Mr Hannaway was protesting over being held in the special segregation unit of the prison rather than on a wing with other dissidents.
He wants to be moved into the republican wing of the prison.
He was moved to the hospital wing of the jail on Monday night.
Following a meeting between members of his family and the Northern Ireland Prison Service on Tuesday night, Hannaway decided to end his protest.
