You can take whey protein isolate after work out if there's no other option for having a healthy high protein meal post exercise. It's always better (safer) to stick to natural protein sources derived from food. If you do plan to take whey isolate after exercise ensure you mix it with water (not milk) and drink it within 30 minutes after finishing your work out. While taking a protein supplement you need to ensure your daily water intake is as high as 3 Liters a day to avoid unnecessary load on your kidneys. Start with 1/2 scoop and check for any side effects.In case of any untoward reaction stop it immediately.
