Cut the 4 pills to the half and first day you take de first 4 halfs and the other day the rest of them. In that way you can asure that is taken one full pill of each type each day.

She should cut each pill in two halfs and take one half of all pills a day.

Sorry, I was not clear that I was talking about the Princess riddle.

I failed to mention that if you get “Yes followed by Yes’ or “No followed by No” don’t use that door.

The answer given requires some convoluted logic to interpret. If you make up a spreadsheet you will find the only correct answers to the questions to find the freedom door are either “No followed by Yes” or “Yes followed by No”. I still believe that a single relatively simple hypothetical question where the answer is either “Yes” of “No” is far more elegant. “Ockham’s Razor” if you will.
