Is creatinine a better monitoring choice than cystatin C on semaglutide?

The specifics, since they change the answer: creatinine · cystatin C · semaglutide.

I suspect the honest answer is that it depends, in which case I would like to know on what.

Assume I can obtain either option without difficulty, so availability is not the deciding factor.

Under what conditions does the answer flip?
