You can use Xarelto (rivaroxaban) as solo therapy to treat acute DVT. It is dosed 15 mg twice daily for 21 days (then it changes).
There is NO reason to take Coumadin (warfarin) with it. Warfarin is not therapuetic for several days at best and if used to treat DVT something quick like low molecular weight heparin used until the warfarin is therapeutic. I'd just use the Xarelto and follow up with your PCP.
