| Ability loss | |
|---|---|
 Peter is surprised to find that he has lost his abilities. |
Ability loss renders an evolved human unable to use his/her ability through drugs, illness, theft, or other evolved human abilities.
Causes
Mohinder gives Sylar some curare intravenously in order to cause "paralysis of the brain." Sylar was unable to use his abilities until he removed the IV drip. (Parasite)
Takezo ties up Hiro and exposes him to opium smoke. During this time, Hiro was unable to use his abilities due to his lack of concentration and sluggishness caused by the opium. (Out of Time)
It is unknown if opium will still cause ability loss for evolved humans with abilities that are passive or require little concentration.
After being captured by the Company, Peter is given ability negation pills in order to suppress his powers. The effects of the pills wore off after a few days of not taking them. (Four Months Ago...)
The Shanti virus
- Molly Walker contracted the Shanti virus and was thus unable to access her ability. Mohinder cures her using his own blood and Molly fully regains her ability (The Hard Part).
- The Haitian contracted the Shanti virus at some point and was unable to access his ability. Mohinder cured him with the antibodies of his own blood, and the Haitian was able to access and use his ability shortly after. (Lizards)
- Sylar contracted the Shanti virus and was unable to use his powers as well as steal abilities (Kindred).
- Niki Sanders injected herself with the Shanti virus when she couldn't fight off Maury Parkman's mind control, resulting in the loss of her super strength (Out of Time).

Arthur Petrelli has shown that he can steal the abilities of other evolved humans, rendering them powerless. He is known to have stolen the following powers: Template:ArthurStolen According to Arthur, the effects of power absorption are permanent.
