Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of nifedipine (Procardia)?

B) Reduction of blood pressure is accomplished by reducing the peripheral vascular resistance.
C) It blocks the calcium channels of the smooth muscles of peripheral arterioles and not the calcium channels of the cardiac electrical conduction system.
D) It effectively dilates the coronary arteries.
E) It produces a positive inotropic effect on the heart.
