There are multiple "drugs" (not medicine) that kill pathogens. They are known as antibiotics. The most common is from the Menicillin family. Normally the most prescribed is penicillin that was discovered by accident during microbiology experiments.

Antibiotics kill bacteria in the body helping it to fight infections. They kill all bacteria and can kill healthy bacteria that the body needs. They cannot kill viruses which are another form of pathogen.
