You mean aspirin as the bloodthinners? It could have been better if you specified what other drugs you are taking specifically because you are curious in interactions. Taking heart medication is not ordinary subject that I could say you are self medicating. Surely ,it has been prescribed by a doctor who I am sure had given you special instructions and releavant informations. He could have not just given you without knowing. Perhaps you could have forgotten but please specify the drugs and maybe I could be of more help. Take care of your heart.

depends on which specific medications you are on.
If the blood thinner that you are referring to is warfarin (Coumadin)... there are many drug interactions. At home you would need to monitor your Vitamin K intake, refrain from using OTC medications that can thin your blood a little bit (like OTC aspirin, ibuprofen, Pepto Bismol). Antibiotics can also change your clotting time. These are things that your physician and pharmacist are responsible for looking out for.
I'd suggest calling your local pharmacist where you get your medication from and talk about what specific medications you're worried about. That's what we're there for!

Talk to your pharmacist. There are warnings on some OTC drugs about this, but it doesn't really get to the bottom of things!
Heart medicines and things like diuretics can interact. So too Digitalis with vitamins c if eaten at the same time.

Garlic is a natural and efficient bloodthinner so avoid it.
