Explanation:
1. Reduce the effect of the disease: Medicines are provided to reduce the pain or bring down the fever. In other words, symptomatical treatment may help to reduce the impact of a disease, but it might not outright cure it. Illness like the common cold does not have a cure, hence, treating symptoms will alleviate the discomfort or illness to an extent.
2. Kill the cause of the disease: Use medicines that can kill the pathogens. Each microbe undergoes some specific biochemical life process which helps them to survive. The intake of certain drugs that block these biochemical processes can help in killing the microorganism causing the disease. Antibiotics serve the purpose.
