My husband had same issue, everytime he coughs the cap blows off and formula spews! We had to go to the General surgeon to have end replaced - he just snipped the old one off and screwed a new one on. Crazy that we can't do ourselves but after getting charged crazy amount for this simple procedure we have resorted to using tape over the end to keep the cap on.
