How To Cut Down Percocet Dose After Back Surgeries?

My husband has been on percocet for 2 back surgeries in 1 week. He was on 12 percocets a day has cut it back to 2 a day and now wants to cut it completely out and want to know how long it takes to get out of his system. He doesn't need a urine test. He just wants all the effects out of his system. Just curious how long.
