Brief Answer:
Warfarin is a good option!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

What is the problem with Xarelto? It would be interesting to know so as to make recommendations with that in mind. However, warfarin is the most commonly used substitute for Xarelto and vice versa. I suggest you ask your doctor about this and the possibility of changing your script to Warfarin.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
