Having read the book, I was under the impression it was the Mexicans who took the heroin, that is, the same guys who chase Moss after he returns to the cars in the night.
When Moss first finds the cars and the drugs, it is clear that he doesn't take the heroin with him: "He wet his forefinger and dipped it in the powder and smelled it. Then he wiped his finger on his jeans and pulled the tarp back over the parcels and stepped back and looked over the country again." When he returns to the cars the next night: "He shone the hooded light into the cargo space behind the seats. Everything gone."
Chigurh visits the scene only after all this has taken place, so the heroin was already gone by then.
It's been a while since I saw the film, so unfortunately I don't remember if the storyline differs from the book. Hope this helps anyway!
