Is it true that an antibiotic (amoxicillin) to which I had sensitivity (allergy) about 30 years back can be used now? I had to take amoxicillin today morning as regimen for helicobacter pylori based dyspepsia, and no problem in six hours, so is it safe to continue the regimen?

there should not be any problem now. what was the severity of reaction 30 years back? Generally, amoxycillin does not have a serious allergic problem. I feel you can continue.
