The flu is caused by viruses and they can not be killed by medicines like bacteria can when you take antibiotics for an infection. Viruses are not living organisms and, therefore, are not affected by the things that kill living bacteria.
A new flu vaccine was developed for the Swine Flu during the pandemic of 2009 and for the last several years this vaccine has been included in the seasonal flu vaccinations. It will help to prevent infection by this virus but will not cure it once you have the flu.
Treatment for the flu includes OTC remedies for the symptoms of sore throat, cough, fever, etc. and use of the antiviral drugs for flu which do not cure, but will lessen the duration and severity of symptoms if taken within 48 hrs of the first signs of the flu. See the related questions below for more information on treatment of swine flu.
