Abstract: The invention relates to new arylsulphonamides of the formula ##STR1## (wherein A, B and R.sub.1 to R.sub.6 are as defined in claim 1, the enantiomers, the cis- and trans-isomers thereof where R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 together represent a carbon-carbon bond, and the addition salts thereof, more particularly for pharmaceutical use the physiologically acceptable addition salts thereof with inorganic or organic bases, if R.sub.6 represents a hydroxy group) which have useful pharmacological properties, particularly antithrombotic activities and thromboxane-mediating activities. Furthermore, the new compounds are also thromboxane antagonists (TRA) and thromboxane synthesis inhibitors (TSH) They also have an effect on PGE.sub.2 production.
