Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave a mix review " Judges giving instant, contradictory judgements from one hearing to another."[3] Deepa Gahlot writing for Scroll.in gave positive review "The densely plotted, often naive eight-part series takes the mission of its characters very seriously, so they look solemn all the time."[4] Rachit Gupta of Filmfare gave 3.5/5 stars and wrote "The performances by the entire cast are topnotch."[5] Times Now gave 3/5 stars and commented "Pill could have been a more interesting thriller delving into the world of medicine creators and prescribers."[6] Shreyas Pande of Cinema Express stated "Pill doesn’t rise away from the pre-established genre tropes and pitfalls into a plethora of undercooked ideas."[7] Troy Ribeiro of The Free Press Journal observed "Overall, while the series has its minor flaws, including some deus ex machina elements that feel contrived, it remains engaging throughout, supported by top-notch production values."[8] Vinamra Mathur of Firstpost gave a mix review "The series does keep you hooked, but Gupta relies little more on tired monologues and heroic ordinariness than exploring these helpless people’s vulnerabilities."[9]
