Hello,
I have gone through your daughters history it is suggesting me of Upper respiratory Tract Infection.
As you are asking the dose of Azithromycin it is 30mg/ Kg body weight.
As your daughter is 4 years 8 months i think her wight will be around 17-18 kg.
Calculate according to the body weight and give to your daughter.
I wish you daughter a speedy recovery.
Thank you
