dispenser
Automatic doling device
A dispenser is a device that releases measured amounts of something: a soap dispenser, a paper towel dispenser, a candy dispenser.
The word extends to people who provide things: a dispenser of wisdom, a dispenser of justice.
Vending machines are sometimes called dispensers.
In pharmacy, the dispenser is the person who fills prescriptions.
