Pain killers only do just that- help to kill pain. Pathogens such as bacteria are not killed by pain medicine. Antibiotics are prescribed to kill some pathogens, but currently no antibiotics are also pain killers as well.

Does alcohol kill your brain cells?

No. Hand sanitizers on your hands just kill pathogens (Pathogens is another word for germs, if you don't know what it means). The pathogens can't evade the alcohol. If they do, they may kill your brain cells. I do not know about other alcohols, but of course, it won't kill your brain cells if it doesn't have to do with killing germs. That was a very good question, anyway.
