Lymphoma treatment
This section of our website is about lymphoma treatment.
We have information covering getting ready for treatment (prehabilitation), different types of treatment, and remission (where there is no evidence of lymphoma in your body).
We have a separate information about lymphoma in children and young people.
Treatment planning
Your medical team plans the most appropriate treatment for you based on factors including the type of lymphoma you have, how quickly it's growing (its stage), your general health and what's important to you.
- Getting ready for treatment (prehabilitation)
- Lymphoma treatment during pregnancy
- Side effects
- Late effects.

Watch our video if you want to know more about new and future treatments for lymphoma. In it, Professor Andy Davies talks about recent developments in treatment options.
Supportive treatments
Some treatments are given to help with symptoms of lymphoma or side effects of treatment rather than as treatment of the lymphoma itself. These are sometimes called ‘supportive treatments’ or ‘supportive care’.
