To make something variable (i.e. the speed), you need to declare a variable: 
private int speed = 1;
so that you can change it: 
if (speed == 1) speed = 2;
(some other condition would be used to prompt the increase in speed) and move by it: 
move(speed);
However, without any control, this change would be permanent. ************** Adding a timer field would be more like what is needed for the change to only be temporary: 
private int speedTimer;
with control: 
if (speedTimer > 0) speedTimer--; // run timer
move(1+(int)Math.signum(speedTimer));
For 2 seconds of high speed when pill is eaten: 
speedTimer = 120; // set timer
