Hello,

these two drugs may interact and increase the potency of xarelto, leading (potentially) to bleeding events. Concurrent use is discouraged. You can check Xa factor activity to check the effect xarelto has on your blood. If the Xa activity is within therapeutic limits then you're probably safe.
Discuss this with the treating doctor because other factors may also come into play. Your doctor knows the full details of your medical history and drugs and is the best person to decide your treatment.

Kind Regards!
