Arylthioalkylphenylcarboxylic acids are provided which have the structure <IMAGE> wherein Ar represents an aryl group including phenyl or naphthyl which may or may not include one or more substituents, X is COOR where R is hydrogen, alkali metal, or lower alkyl, or X is 5-tetrazolyl or <IMAGE> where R1 is lower alkyl or aryl, p is 1 to 5, and m is 1 to 4. These compounds are cardiovascular agents which exhibit thromboxane antagonist activity and thus are useful in the treatment of thrombotic and vasopastic diseases. |
