Abstract
Lymphomas are subdivided in Hodgkin’s disease (HD) and non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas (NHL). Essentially the medications used are of two types: monoclonal antibodies and chemotherapy. The side effects of treatment are grouped accordingly. The most commonly used treatment protocol in NHL is a combination of a monoclonal antibody with polychemotherapy. Hence, this chapter is subdivided according to these two treatment modalities.
