Technically, a tablet is made by pressing dry ingredients into a solid,
while a pill is made by rolling a doughy substance into a convenient shape.
In olden times, the pill was rolled between the thumb, index, and long
finger, hence the term "pill-rolling tremor" for the characteristic
3-cycle/second movements of the fingers of a person with Parkinsonism.  I
think the term was inadvertent in the question, I believe she meant how many
tablets in a bottle or package, which is what you answered.
