I had done all of that, am I supposed to make the additional pills for the next stage of the quest myself?

I don't think the ones you can make count, as you need new ones that haven't been discovered yet. What I did after that is repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 a few times, each time the story progresses a bit more and eventually the Dr takes you to the entrance of the drug den, once you have that unlocked you can use that instead of the bounty board to get your pills (you get your pills mostly by fighting bosses in the den)
