A member asked:
Do blood thinners, like aspirin, have an effect on heart rate? will it increase or decrease heart rate? if not, why does it not affect heart rate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: There is no reason for aspirin or blood thinners to change heart rate in the absence of a severe complication. They are used to reduce risk of clotting.
