Welcome, Brian.

It's probably a good idea to see a doctor and be honest about your drinking so a medical professional can evaluate the risk of withdrawals.

As to the ability of an alcoholic or problem drinker tapering their intake, I'd say poor. If we had that kind of control, we wouldn't be here.

Welcome to SR Brian

I think the best person to answer your question would be a doctor. It depends on a few factors and there are various options. You'll find lots of support here though x
