Do I subtract amount of 'taxable accrued interest paid' from box 1 'interest income' on 1099-INT thus reducing interest income amount?

If this is reporting Interest income on an instrument like a bond that had accrued interest at the time you purchased, then yes, you would reduce your interest income by the accrued interest at your purchase date.

But you need to report the full amount of the interest and then enter the Accrued Interest paid as an adjustment to reduce it.

Where/how do you subtract the accrued interest you paid?  It seems weird this is not done by the brokerage company that reports the interest.
