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.

How many pathogens are there?
There are four major types of human pathogens: -Bacteria -Viruses -Fungi -and Protists
Are viruses and bacteria types of pathogens?
yes
What category of medicine is used to treat pathogens or disease-causing microorganisms?
Antimicrobial medicine, such as antibiotics, antivirals, and antifungals, is used to treat pathogens or disease-causing microorganisms. These medications target specific types of microorganisms to help the body fight off infections.
Pathogens that live and feed inside infected organisms are called?
Intracellular pathogens. These types of pathogens rely on living host cells to survive and reproduce, making them more challenging to treat with certain types of medications or treatments.
What are the four types of pathogens?
The four type of pathogens are bacterium, protists, viruses, and fungi. Parasitic worms are NOT pathogens.
What are three types of cells the help fight disease?
Stem cells, T Helper cells, and Lymphocytes all help fight diseases.
Are pathogens multi cellular?
Pathogens can be either multicellular or unicellular. Unicellular pathogens include bacteria and many types of protozoa, while multicellular pathogens primarily consist of certain fungi and parasites, such as helminths (worms). The classification depends on the organism's structure and complexity. Thus, not all pathogens are multicellular; it varies among different types.
What types of pathogens are specific to the nose?
infleunzae virus
What types of scientist studies pathogens?
Microbiologists, immunologists, and epidemiologists are scientists who study pathogens. Microbiologists focus on the characteristics and behavior of pathogens, immunologists study the body's immune response to pathogens, and epidemiologists investigate how pathogens spread in populations.
What are defensins?
Defensins are small proteins found in the immune system that help the body fight against pathogens like bacteria, viruses, and fungi. They work by disrupting the cell membranes of these pathogens, leading to their destruction. Defensins are produced by various cell types, including white blood cells and epithelial cells.
What types of medicines are most irritating to the stomach?
Asprin, Tylenol
