There are two main types of blood thinners. Anticoagulants, such as heparin or warfarin (also called Coumadin), work on chemical reactions in your body to lengthen the time it takes to form a blood clot. Antiplatelet drugs, such as aspirin, prevent blood cells called platelets from clumping together to form a clot.
In the blood, these prostanoids cause platelets to stick together, so blocking cyclooxygenase with aspirin reduces the formation of blood clots. Prostanoids also affect inflamed areas of the body, such as sprains and damaged joints. This is why in the past aspirin was used as a painkiller and anti-inflammatory drug.
