No one knows what the disease was for sure. There's varying ideas on what it is. Personally I think it's Syphilis but there's some that think it was a plague that was going on around that time period.
As for the "divine elixer" .. if I recall, wasn't that just a filler made up plot? It wasn't in the manga and thus didn't really exist. Granted, a lot of SeisouHen wasn't in the manga either and was not what Watsuki wanted, but at least they didn't include any TV filler stuff in the OAVs.

Does that mean Kenshin got this disease from being unfaithful to karou?

Not necessarilly. It can also be contracted via wounds. Keep in mind that the disease is caused by a bacteria. There's more than one way to contract it.
