Neither P blockers nor calcium channel blockers cause diar
rhea. Hypoglycemia is not a common effect of any of the
antihypertensive drugs. Thyroid disorders are not associated
with either drug group. However, calcium blockers, especially
verapamil and diltiazem, and P blockers are associated with
depression of calcium-dependent processes in the heart, fur
example, contractility, heart rate, and atriovcntricular con
duction. Therefore, bradycardia and increased PR interval
may be expected. In contrast to verapamil and diltiazem,
dihydropyridines do not often cause cardiac depression, prob
ably because they evoke increased sympathetic outflow as a
result of their dominant vascular effects. The answer is C.
