No, you should not give Dabur Janma Ghunti Honey to your 15–16-day-old baby. Since your paediatrician has explicitly advised against giving any ghutti or syrup, it is critical to follow that instruction, especially while your baby’s liver is still recovering from newborn jaundice. Furthermore, this product contains honey, which carries a strict medical warning: honey must never be given to infants under 12 months of age due to the risk of infant botulism, a rare but serious bacterial illness. At this delicate stage, introducing any herbal blends can cause severe digestive distress and overtax your newborn's fragile system; your baby should only receive breast milk or doctor-recommended formula.
