There are possibly many such Stotras and of course Mantras are there too.
For example, the Sarva Roga Hara Maheswara Kavacham, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is one such Stotra/Kavacha.
Quoting few verses from the Phalasruthi below:
15.Iykahikam vaa dhyajhikam,
Vaa tritheeya chathurthakam,
Vatha pitha kaphod bhootham,
Sannipatho ugra thejasam.16.Anyam dukha dhoora darsha karmajam cha abhicharikam, Dathustham kapha sammisram vishamam kama sambhavam.
Reading this daily or once in two days, Or once in three days or once in four days., Would remove diseases caused by rheumatism, bile and phlegm , And those by evil spirits and the very severe collection of them .
Other sorrows caused by actions from far off or black magic, Or problems caused metal and phlegm and problems caused by passion,
17.Bhoothabhishanga samsargam Bhootha cheshtadhi samsthitham,
Shivagnam Ghora manthrena Poorva vrutham swayam smara.In case of the visits of ghosts or when troubles are caused by ghosts, Remember this powerful chant told before as per the orders of Lord Shiva.
18.Thyaja deham manushyasya dheepam gacha Maha jwara,
Krutham thu kavacham divyam sarva vyadhi bhayrdhanam.When man’s soul goes away from the body due to great fever The above divine armour would completely remove the fear of disease.
And, I believe there are many other Stotras having the same benefit. However, if the black magic done is too powerful then dedicated Pujas have to be performed by learned Pundits as a remedial measure. I doubt whether reading Stotras by oneself work (as completely effective remedies) in those cases or not.
