Brief Answer: Enhanced activity of Xeralto is resulted... Detailed Answer: Hi, Thank you for sharing your concern with HCM. Xeralto (generic for rivaroxaban) is an anti-coagulant drug used to reduce blood clogs and cardiac events. Kaletra (generic for lopinavir and ritonavir) is a HIV protease inhibitor used in HIV patients. Attention is called for when using Xeralto and Kaletra at the same time because Kaletra might enhance the effect of Xeralto and subsequently, increasing the chances for bleeding. However, you should consult your physician for further specifical evaluation! Dr.Klerida
